After installing firefox 3.6 was also prompted to install flash player 10.1. The Real Player downloader would not work. Went to Internet Exployer had to Install Flash player 10.1 on Internet Exployer to get the Realplayer downloader to work only on Internet Exployer. I prefer to have firefox to have realplayer downloader to work.I hate Internet Exployer!!!.Can this be resolved? Please!!!

Real is always, it seems, late in releasing updates for new browser updates. They are given the same opportunity during the Firefox pre-release testing as other developers to be sure that their products will work with new Firefox releases.

But, alas, always the same problem!

I first tried firefox 3.5.15, it did not work,

but later, there was an automatic updated happened,
and I found out that all of sudden, by chance, that it is working,
the button download start to work,  so I checked out the update, 

it is the 3.5.16 (20101130074636) update.

details please see the image.  Hope this will work for you.  
I first downloaded 3.5.15 from oldapps.com   

then the auto update, and once it start working, i stopped the further update from:

tools - option - advanced - update - choose the manual update option, disable the automatic update. 

hope this will help you.
