[Greasemonkey] unable to install new scripts

[Gareth Andrew]

Hi Hemal,

This error is usually caused by a missing greasemonkey configuration 
file or gm_scripts directory. 
Please go to your firefox profile directory (on windows something like 
c:\Documents and Settings\<user>\Application 
Data\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\13rzw4zp.default\ ), and confirm you have 
a "gm_scripts" directory and a config.xml file in the directory.  If 
these are absent, just create empty files, hopefully this will fix the 
problem.

Gareth.
