Yeah, i still get it but it is only  a problem if i download the plugin from a different site. eg. downloading plugins and add ons from getfirefox.org works perfectly.

I thought this was more a problem installing Java
from the pic that you posted
Are you installing the full version of Java?

What other sites are you having problems with when it comes to installing addons?

This may just be a permission problem
Is this windows Vista?

Can you close Firefox
Then right click on the Firefox icon on desktop and select "Run as administrator"

Does that help?
