Please see this thread ---> FILTER FORGE 3.0 HAS BEEN RELEASED

http://www.filterforge.com/forum/read...5&TID=9055

Sorry, but the 3.005 is the old beta version and is no more used and from the 10 of November there has been released the final commercial version of Filter Forge 3.0 that is version 3.006

It is also shown on the home page that the 3.0 final version has been released so is not anymore the beta, and is a new version.

Have you noticed what's changed at http://www.filterforge.com - Right - we've just released Filter Forge 3.0! Now, get your hands on the new version, and the FF team will be right back after a quick refreshing nap

If you go to the download page you will see that it has changed and there is a new version of 3.0, and is the final commercial version and not anymore the beta.

So please, download the new version and install it over the old version of 3.0 you have and so you can continue your work.

You can use this new version for 30 days as a trial if you do not have the new key and have not bought the upgrade yet.

Gameshade, does it happen in another browser: Chrome, Safari or IE?

Hello,
I have same problem.
Since i upgraded to FF3.006 Pro version i could't download any filter into Firefox.
It told me same thing: "Firefox can't find the file at filterforge://open-etc."
I have to copy and paste into safari also.
And FF3 integrated filters updates works fine at the beginning.
And I cut firewall to see if there was any trouble with it...

Looks like Firefox internally points to a wrong or missing executable for open ffxml file requests. You can set the correct file path and application in Firefox's preferences > applications tab.

Please, I think that to find a fast solution and fix to the "can´t download FF filter" problem, you could try the following:

1 - Use another different browser to see if with this other browser you can download FF filters

2 - Delete the FF cookies and try again to download and confirm to create new FF cookies when the browser tells you "filter forge is not installed" which is obviously wrong

3 - IF NON of the browsers work, you can also try to download FF filter using the built in browser inside Filter Forge so you do not depend from any browser.
