I have a Comment about Remove 
the Microsoft .NET Framework Assistant (ClickOnce) Firefox Extension:

This extension is also added for Chrome. But it is easy to remove. If you are not using .NET 3.5 (true in 90 % of cases I would say), just use Add/Remove Programs to remove ".NET framework v3.5 SP1". and it removes the registry entry and the AssistantExtension. Yes, its a pain to have to do this every time there is an update for earlier .NETs... But you can choose not to be notified about the .NET update (until the next one at least) if you untick it when you choose "Custom Install" for updates If you ARE using .NET 3.5, well you have to follow the instructions in the article...

after reading about this I checked my Firefox add-ons and the complete section was greyed out, stating that it was not compatible with F/fox 3.5? does this mean it wont cause any problems as I am using 3.5?

Firefox v 3.5? I don't think that has any connection with .NET 3.5

I seem to remember that the addon is greyed out to prevent removal. I would follow 
the instructions in the orginal post re removing the addon.
