Riverfox Riverfox Posts: 3	How do I get Firefox to download an effect? I click on the "open this effect in Filter Forge" and I get the following: "Firefox doesnâ€™t know how to open this address, because one of the following protocols (filterforge) isnâ€™t associated with any program or is not allowed in this context."

Riverfox Riverfox Posts: 3	Thanks, but Firefox doesn't allow me to add file types. I have to download a filter for the program to add it ... and I couldn't d/l the filter. I reinstalled FF and refreshed the filter page. When I clicked on it, Firefox finally asked me what program I needed to d/l the file. Perhaps reinstalling did the trick.
