I would like to know if there are any plans for MinTrayR to support the Pale Moon browser. Pale Moon (palemoon.org), which I use as my default browser, is a Firefox fork optimized for slower PCs and with streamlined source code. It's essentially a pseudo-clone of Firefox proper but with a few other tweaks and other modifications -- 99% of what Firefox can do, Pale Moon does also. (Except, apparently, install this awesome extension. D-:)

I'm running Pale Moon 3.6.28 (= Firefox 3.6.25), and MinTrayR does not install, although the home page of MinTrayR says the extension at present should support Firefox 3.6.* up to version 6. Right now Firefox itself (and also Pale Moon) sits in the (stable) 8.* version numbers (I think?); but I'm unsure about MinTrayR's support for versions past the 6 series, as I don't use that branch. (As a workaround I use Minimize to Tray Plus and the XP app TrayIt! 4.6.5.5.)

Appreciate all the hard work you've put into a much beloved extension. I'm also using Down Them All, to your credit also :-) DTA doesn't work with MinToTray Plus, though TrayIt! is program-agnostic and works with 99% of Windows apps -- but only on XP. I like DTA's integration with MinTrayR, which is why I'm submitting this issue. (I am not a programmer either so I wouldn't know anything about how to make it actually work.) :-\

Further system specs are below. TIA :-D
