Something weird is going on in Linux, I do not think it is taskfox-related, per se.

and then it just crashes HARD.
I will file a bug with the plugin manager component.

That is indeed weird – it ran fine on Try. Any chance you get the same thing with today’s 3.6pre nightly? I merged from mozilla-central right before I kicked off that build.

Is Taskfox available as a FF extension?
Sorry, no. It’s only available as a special build.
