Mostly pull them out of their own pocket, especially if they are small. However, there is NOTHING WRONG with them if they that the content is supplied with unobtrusive ads rather than without in order to cover such costs and more. The only "cretinous hypocrites" are the ones who then come onto the site, block the ads and still consume the content - if I ever find a sites advertising not to my liking, I would like to think it is MY decision to not visit it, to go somewhere else.

Is the content free? Then why the ads? Why the complaints about adblocking? Not giving it away? Are you sure? It's on a public viewable system. Don't want the public to see it without making money? Protect it will a billing system. Cretinous hypocrites all. Oh the tired abuse of “free” argument.

Not giving it away? Are you sure? It’s on a public viewable system.

Don’t want the public to see it without making money? Protect it will a billing system.

Cretinous hypocrites all.

Plugins <em>are</em> add-ons.

7 new plugin(s) installed
1 new add-on has been installed.

This doesn’t make sense. Plugins are add-ons.

Those SeaMonkey versions have exactly the same Add-ons Manager and plugins support as the according Firefox versions (SM 2.0 has the same platform as FF 3.5.4) so those things should work without actual change, just with a not of compatibility in install.rdf / AMO.

Could you change your code in a way that doesn't need these methods on Array.prototype? I've filed https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=524661 to fix the Firefox side of that bug.
