Harold, 

Did you try removing Evernote from the addons dialog box in
Firefox
(Tools/Addons)?  I think that was the first thing I
suggested and it's not
on your list. 

It's intersting how Firefox and Mozilla are not in the
Microsoft spell
checker.

Ben

Ben, I also like Firefox and will appreciate your assist in
setting me up
with
the best extensions and add-ons. Now this is what I then
did. Again I tried
to
do a complete uninstall of Firefox and then re-install it
from scratch as
follows:



1. Add/Remove ... removed Firefox 1.5.0.6 (approx 15MB)

2. Removed Mozilla Firefox folder from Program Files

3. Removed Mozilla from C:Documents and
SettingsCompaq_OwnerLocal
SettingsApplication Data (Note that Local Setting is by
default a hidden
folder so I missed it last time).

4. At the same time, I removed "My EverNote Files"
from C:Documents and
SettingsCompaq_OwnerMy Documents (seems I missed that last
time). I never
think of looking in C:Documents and SettingsCompaq_Owner
for anything
being
so accustomed to the Program Files folder.

5. Using Search ... Removed "Firefox setup exe"
and "Firefox.exe" from
C:WindowsPrefetch (no idea what prefetch means)

6. Using RegSeeker ... Removed all references to Firefox and
Mozilla in
registry

7. With no references to either Firefox or Mozilla (except
my shortcuts in
the
Start menu and the setup file in my flash drive), I did a
full reboot.

8. Downloaded another setup file for Firefox (still version
1.5.0.6 but
wasn't
taking any chances)

9. Installed this newer version of Firefox, still 1.5.0.6
(with the Google
toolbar which I disable since there is already a googls
search to the right
of
the address bar).



And my bookmarks are still listed, EverNote button is to the
right of the
Homepage button, and "Add to EverNote" line is
still on bottom of the
right-click context menu.
