For clarification after a ridiculous amount of testing and the moz
enterprise list keep pointing to outdated documentation!!!!!
* The documentation is outdated and is incorrect causing mass confusion for
enterprises:
https://developer.mozilla.org/En/Developer_Guide/Customizing_Firefox#Includi
ng_extensions_with_your_distribution_of_Firefox
https://developer.mozilla.org/en/Installing_extensions
* On Mac OSX Firefox 8 and above unpacked extentions need to be placed here
Firefox.app/Contents/MacOS/distribution/bundles/ (by befault these
directories do not exist so you will need to create them)
* The extensions will load even if Firefox is launched in safe mode and
cannot be disabled
* A distribution.ini is not required
* A js script as reported by Mike Kapley reported as a bug to Mozilla is not
required
* If extensions are placed here /Library/Application
Support/Mozilla/Extensions/{ec8030f7-c20a-464f-9b0e-13a3a9e97384}/
as well you will get the trust prompts so do not put any global extensions
in here any more and just put them in the location stated above
