Since I didn't see Sideload in my FF Extensions, I searched for it on
my Mac. I found a sideload.jar file.
quit FF, put the sideload.jar file in the trash, restarted FF

now, when FF starts and my window opens, there's about an inch of
white space below the Status bar that's still part of the window.
My little GM icon on the status bar is gone, but when I look at my
extensions list, GM still shows up.

should I put the sideload.jar file back?
does it go in my userprofile/extensions folder?
