- Up to Extensions (Firefox)
When you install an extension (or click on a link to an XPI file), a confirmation dialog pops up with a short delay, preventing you from immediately confirming the install. There are good reasons for this delay, even if you are an advanced user. If you understand the consequences, but want to disable the delay anyway...
Firefox 2.0
The preference security.dialog_enable_delay controls the amount of time in milliseconds to wait. Setting this to 0 disables the delay.
Firefox 1.5
Try MR Tech Disable XPI Install Delay.
