Mozilla - .Net Framework Assistant Issue.

[prabs]

I am attaching a pic to show exactly what my problem was:



Everything was ok until I installed Batman AA. I was using firefox 3.5.2 so I updated it to 3.5.3 but the problem was not solved.

A bit of googling for solutions led me here:

How to uninstall Microsoft .NET Framework Assistant from Firefox

How to uninstall

1. Open Regedit (Start > Run > “regeditâ€)
2. Goto “HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Mozilla\Firefox\extensions†(or “HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\Mozilla\Firefox\extensions†for 64-bit versions of Windows
3. You’ll see “{20a82645-c095-46ed-80e3-08825760534b}â€. Right click it and click Delete.
4. Restart Firefox.
5. Write an angsty live journal entry about why “Micro$oft“ sucks.

I took a backup of my registry (just Mozilla bit) before deleting the entry and the problem has gone away.

But,
Will I run into trouble when I try to upgrade FF again.
Also was that extension important.

From the firefox addons site: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/9449

Adds ClickOnce support and the ability to report installed .NET versions to the web server.

which I believe you do not require, so it's safe to uninstall the extension. Also, because it is Microsoft that installed this extension, and not FF, you can safely upgrade the browser without any problems.
