Etoys Installer corrupts Firefox..

UniHigh Computer Support

Dear Dev list:

The eToys installer assumes that there is a plugins directory already  present in FireFox so when it attempts to install the NPSqueak.dll it  ends up creating a plugin FILE (with the contents of NPSqueak.dll)  instead of directory, which will munge things for other installers  (Microsoft Lync) that later attempt to install their plugin file into  the Mozilla plugins directory (which is a file created by eToys).


We have removed it from our base install due to complications resulting from this error.

However, the plugin itself really needs to be re-written as the NPAPI is being phased out of multiple browsers:

Also, your contact page on your website (http://www.squeakland.org/contact/) throws the following error:
