Few addons are not compatible with mine, so how to detect their presence and inform the user. Thanks OK got it here is how this is done : function isExtEnabled(){ if(!Application.extensions.has('EXTENSION_ID_HERE')) { return false; } return true; } Here is an example from the evil noscript-1.9.2.xpi which modified adblock plugin settings function MRD(ns) { this.enabled = ns.getPref("mrd", true); if (!this.enabled) return; var c = CC[this.id]; if (c) { this.ns = ns; this.c = c.createInstance().wrappedJSObject; this._w._mrd = this; var eh = this.c["elemhide"]; eh.watch("url", this._w); eh.apply(
