General ledger -- You're right .. there is a risk when you grab something untested .. I looked at what WOT said about github (trusted) - I looked at their website .. I made a restore point before downloading .. the site asked for NO INFO .... and I ran Malwarebytes and Spybot after downloading.. How can you be sure ANYTHING is safe??

It would be kind of odd for someone to wait until a Firefox add-on breaks,, repair it, put in a virus or something and then hope that people grab it .. BUT, you may be RIGHT...

Thanks, bonelessjerk --- That got Gmail Manager running again on my XP machine -- at least for the next couple of weeks!! --- Simply open another window or tab ... copy and paste this into your address bar and it will do the update for you ---> https://github.com/downloads/athomas/mozilla-firefox-addons/gmail_manager-0.6.4.1.3-fx+sm.xpi

Seems to work okay for me ... Now if it will just hold together for a while...

I fixed GMail-Manager on September 8th, and on the 15th it stopped again on my XP.... it's easy to set Gmail to work with Outlook or Outlook Express ...Gmail even gives you step-by-step instructions......maybe I'll use that .... I find GMail-Manager a handy program, but I'm not interested in having it stop every couple of weeks ... I don't want to get into the nuts-and-bolts and write or copy code ... I'm neither familiar or comfortable enough to do that..My advice -- wait a while until it's fixed and proved to be reliable ... otherwise it's a disappointment
