Heh, well, you got farther than I did.  I'd need to know what version of 
Gecko this is running on (for example, Nvu still runs on the old 1.7 
Gecko I think, and so we have a version of the extension for those older 
apps).  Also, I'd need to know if it supports uses contents.rdf and a 
GUID to install, or if it's just install.js like Seamonkey and Mozilla 
Suite uses.

Perhaps you can send me the stuff you've got, and I can look at it and 
hopefully point you in the right direction somewhere.  For example, the 
broken tray menu is a common problem.  I bet I could quickly get that 
working.  As for the application crashing while the song is 
playing...hmm..I'd have to see that first to get an idea (but I'm not 
too optimistic there).

Anyways, thanks for the interesting email.  :)
