Not quite. What I actually said was


None of the above. It means your copy of the xpi or possibly your mozilla
install may be somehow messed up.

I took a quick look at the cookie culler xpi content and it looks fine.
Install.rdf says the the extension should install on either Firefox
between 0.8 and 1.5 or the Mozilla between 1.7 and 1.8. I'd need to check
to be sure, but the install.rdf might need to be tweaked for SeaMonkey
1.0. OTOH, it might not if the version number used to check compatibility
is the mozilla suite version which is 1.8.

Note I used the word may. To mean this means I am suggesting a
possibility, not stating something I belive to be a fact.

Also, as I stated I only looked specifically at cookie culler, because you
did not clearly indicate that the other two failed in a different way.

There are any number of easy to read tutorials on writing extensions. All
of them give basic definitions of the purpose and content of each of the
files stored in the .xpi archive.

is as good as any.

I use the Tools->Cookie Manager menu options. Three clicks and the
options for the current site have been changed. Seems easy enough to me.
