Scripting

I was playing with FF about a year ago +6 months.  I found FF a pain to package, and to automaticly import bookmarks was not friendly (think script to open FF, perform mouse clicks, close FF).  The business then came to its senses and went with GC because it can use GPO for lock down and not a plain text config file.
There was a period where a business unit wanted FF packaging, I threw the whole lot in to a ThinApp.  Just install into the capture, add the xpi, make changes, lock down the plain text config file, close capture - Deploy.  noice!
FF is like iTones, it's an end user product, and I don't think it is a very good deployer, or is designed to be super excellent for ThinApp.  New version comes out, flush out new version of ThinFF and it replaces the old.  Make sure the profile stays in a place outside of the capture, and the updates would go nicely.  I say this, because I now package GC for the business, and threw out my FF dev directory after I advised management how difficult it is to manage/deploy.  The manage part (lack of lock down on GPO) was a big killer.

...which would be useful if the OP had asked about Linux installations...

I tried this .. It only install for the current user. Global command is not working. I need to install the add on for multiple users. I tired adding the extracted files as mentioned above still it dose not work.

With every fibre of my being, I have resisted the instinct to post a LMGTFY link!
