You should install extensions in *your profile* (answering yes), not in the mozilla directory. If you install in the mozilla, that is exactly what is up to come to you after an upgrade. Only packaged extensions are better supported. I will try to fix the upgrade issue in next upload, in the meanwhile, you should try the following: Remove the following files: /usr/lib/iceape/components/noscriptService.js /usr/lib/iceape/defaults/pref/noscript.js /usr/lib/iceape/chrome/noscript.jar Run the following command as root: touch /usr/lib/iceape/.autoreg Install the noscript extension in the iceape directory as you did first, which means you'll have to run iceape as root. On upgrade to 1.0.8-3, I hope this noscript will still be here. As for why it still works and why you don't have the S in the status bar: the component, which handles the noscript functionnality, is correctly registered ; what is not registered, however, is the chrome, i.e all the UI overlay files, so that the UI never shows up.
