    I have been trying to install the toolbar onto a different computer that I am using. I never had problems doing this. But I keep getting the following message (i wish to install it on firefox):

    Is there anyway to get round this? I am not very familiar with Firefox, so am unsure what I need to do to actually be able to install the toolbar on it.

    Why would you want the toolbar XD Everyone says TNT tracks what you do through the toolbar. But idk if you can get around that.

    Ive heard about the TNT tracking through the toolbar thing too, but Im pretty sure that is mostly paranoia. I think that kind of thing is illegal, or it seems like it should be anyway. Is there more than one version of the toolbar? I tried to download it one time but when I got it installed, it kept telling me I had an outdated version and needed to install updates. Are you sure youre trying to install the correct version?

    Check your firewalls setting. Or did you try it on EI ? Does it work ?

    Your error message comes from trying to install it if you're using Firefox 3. However, I was able to use it with Firefox 3 without changing any settings. It doesn't look right - I don't actually see the toolbar - I had to manually drag and drop the buttons to the toolbar and I can't see them, but the important thing is they're there. If you click around, you can figure out where the buttons are, you click on the blank space and they work, and you still get the notices.

    i wouldn't install it as the others have said, its been told they can tract what you do through it... plus, its not that important. Just use bookmarks and it'll do the same thing :)
