Issue

I have another kind of problem with Firefox

Description

I am so frustrated i could die. this all started after i upgraded to 3.5.5. i was unable to install personas for some reason. i thought it was because some of my existing add-ons had a bug, so i attempted to remove them. Some of them i had to go in and remove manually because they wouldnt uninstall. I still couldnt get personas to work, and at that point i couldnt reinstall the add-ons like forecast fox etc that i had previously been using. i thought i would just start afresh so i uninstalled firefox completely, including my personal data etc and started from scratch. Now i cannot install ANY add-on. nothing works...google toolbar, foxytunes, and that damned personas.. nothing.
Each time i try to install and add on, it downloads, or appears to, and then says i need to restart firefox to complete install or whatever. when i restart the program there is nothing in the add on tab. its just empty.. im so frustrated. could someone kindly advise? thank you.
