Firefox 3.6 and the Herdict add-on

By lmiyakawa | January 22nd, 2010 | 4 Comments

Yesterday, Mozilla released Firefox 3.6.  If you’ve updated your browser, your Herdict add-on may have broken.  We’ve created an update to the add-on to fix this.

Go to Tools>Add ons.

In the extensions tab, right click on the Herdict add-on.

Select Find Update.

Install.

If you don’t currently have the Herdict add-on installed, you can get it here.  The add-on allows you to report sites directly from your browser (without going to herdict.org).  The sheep icon also changes color depending on the site you’re on, so you can get a sense of if the site you’re viewing is inaccessible to other people in the herd.

    Thank you, that did the trick! Now, if only Mozilla can punch out a fix for 3.6 that restores all the lost thumbnails on various sites, I’ll be a happy camper. Thanks again for the heads up on this update, have an awesome day!
