----------------------------------+-----------------------------------------
 HTTPS Everywhere versions >0.2.2 don't work on the version of Firefox
 bundled with Debian Lenny (derived from Firefox 3.0.x with backported
 security fixes, version 0.2.2 works fine). I suspect the problem is with
 Firefox 3.0.x support in general.

 The current version should either be fixed to support Firefox 3.0.x again,
 or it should refuse to install on these versions. At the moment, it allows
 the user to install/upgrade to this version and then silently fails to
 work, causing the unwitting user's security/privacy to be compromised.
