When I was not able to get Download Statues Bar 0.9.10 to work with Firefox 26 through 31 I found Download Statues Bar 12.2.0 which has most of the features that Download Statues Bar 0.9.10 does and it works with Firefox 26 through 31. I have a couple of reservations about Download Statues Bar 12.2.0.

(1) When I was downloading a file and it paused as a result of communication problem not as a result of me pausing it there was no way to resume like with Download Statues Bar 0.9.10. By the time that happened I was hundreds of pages away from the one I downloaded that file from and I was not able to get back to it.

(2) Download Statues Bar 0.9.10 has a context menu feature clear completed downloads or being able to right click on the file I want to clear. I have never used the clear feature on Download Statues Bar 12.2.0 because I am afraid it might clear a file that is not through downloading or any file.

Download Statues Bar among a short of extensions that is a deal breaker as it relates to my use of Firefox and takes presents over upgrading to a new version of Firefox. As far as I am concerned Firefox should obtain Download Statues Bar and Compact Classics and incorporate them into its browser among others.
