MinimizeToTray is compatible with Firefox 3. Only
its installation procedure says, its not. The solution
is to edit this installation file and reinstall the
addon.

To make MinimizeToTray compatible with Firefox 3,
you just have to edit the install.rdf file of
MinimizeToTray (Its name is probably a weired mix of
mix of characters and numbers).
The file is inside the extensions folder of your
Profiles folder (Have a look in your application data
folder).

1) Open install.rdf to do some text editing.

2) Go to the section




3) and change the max-version setting to

3.0.*

4) Save the changes.

Firefox 3 did not recognize the change by itself.
So you have to

5) make a backup of the whole MinimizeToTray folder

6) Uninstall MinimizeToTray (by the usual
uninstallation procedure OR just delete the folder)

7) Restart Firefox to let it confirm the uninstallation.

8) Copy the MinimizeToTray (with its modified
install.rdf) back into the extensions folder.

9) Restart Firefox.

That's all!
