Firefox users: how to fix js3250.dll

[ChoboSeki]

Following DLL's are included:
js3250.dll
nss3.dll
softokn3.dll

Error:
Cannot find js3250.dll, reinstalling the application..

Information:

If you use Firefox/Firefox 2 Beta and you get this error,

If you have used Internet Explorer and then tried using Firefox/Firefox 2 Beta and you got this error,

And, if you have reinstalled/recopied the files and it keeps happening after you use IE:

Solution:
Reinstall/Recopy those DLL files and set them to Read-Only. This is what I did to fix a friend's computer and it worked perfectly.

did you try just download firefox 2.0 release instead of still using the beta?

Whatever Firefox is on GetFireFox.com is what I have been using. The point of this thread was to tell people if they get that error and are in the same situation as I was in then just set those 3 DLL's to Read-Only to fix it.

How do I set DLL files to Read-Only?

from looking at Firefox's site, it sounds like a bad install. Download version 2.0.0.4 and try again. If you still have problems, then do a "fresh" install. Detail can be found here:

If by chance that doesn't work, there are more tips here:

I don't think a simple question regarding how to set a .dll file is worthy of a new thread...It is right in the context of curing the problem as outlined here.
If i have the wrong post by happie then I apologise..If not..Then explaining to him how woulda been better than the new thread reply.

Kind regards,

answer find the file (ususally in windows/system/ directory, rick click on it and click properties, then tick the read only box and ok.

The only problem I have is you reopened a thread that had been dormant for almost 4 months to question one of my moderator's posts in regard to policy. I see this is your first post - every forum has its own policies and I would ask you to get the feel of this place and read the forum rules before butting heads with one of my mods. You are ALWAYS welcome to question policy in private messages to the staff, but NOT in the open forum. Thanks!

Sir,
Thank you for your kind reply.
My reason to post to this thread was that I have the exact same problem with firefox after installing the latest edition. I am unsure if any other members of this board or the general computer community have come across this problem either, hence, the post.
I have taken the time to read forum rules before posting. I dont believe that I "butted heads" and as stated I apologised in advance for any mistake. However I did manage to get the other blokes question answered.
Thanks guys for your time.
Kind regards,
