    Unwanted Firefox add-ons

    Hi there,

    I have a couple of FF add-on that I have disabled but cannot uninstall / remove, because there is no 'rubbish bin' icon to do so.

    They are Skype Click to Call and Freemake Video Converter Plug-in. I do have Skype installed, but infrequently use it and certainly don't through FF. As for Freemake, I installed to try it out and have found it totally useless.

    How can I remove these from the Add-on list?

    Thanks

    Rex
    What if the Hokey Cokey IS what it's all about?

    Did you try uninstalling Click to Call from the Control Panel?

    Did you uninstall Freemake?
    Check if there is still a C:\Program Files\Freemake\Freemake Video Converter\BrowserPlugin folder and delete the Firefox Browser Plug-in folder. (or the whole Freemake folder if you already tried uninstalling)

    Good stuff! I do use Freemake Video Converter but guess the FF plug-in comes as a default setting. The Browser/FF/ converter plug-in has now been deleted and gone from the FF/Tools/Add-on list.

    As for Skye Click on Call, can find no reference to it anywhere; Control Panel, Add/Remove, Revo Uninstaller, or even an entry in Program Files. Must be a dll link within the Skype program. I can live with the Add-on entry but it does annoy menu.

    Many thanks
