Download failures such as you describe indicate problems on the Mozilla add-on website.

There is not much (anything!) we can do about those, as problems on that website are totally out of our control. I suggest you just try again, as usually such errors are only temporary. I have just managed to install it successfully :D

You can also see the Mozilla support article here for this and other errors, but AMO errors are crappy and can be caused by various things. The update just went public so their caching system probably just had a hic-up distributing the new file. As Richard said, just try again.

While I am glad you did come here to ask for help, your first attempt to report this in a review was not a good idea. Please don't do that. (it'll be deleted at some point) In space, no one can hear you scream, and in reviews everyone hears you but no one will hear a reply. In the future, please use normal support channels first instead of reviews, as indicated in the flyout text next to the review box. (a feature which, ironically, was my idea...) Oh, and AMO reviews are plain text, so attempting BBcode in a review didn't work. :wink:

I hope you don't mind, Dave, but I apologized and was mistaken in the Reviews Section. I updated it to 5 ***** stars from 3 and told everyone to please disregard the last post in the Review Section I left. What an idiot, moron, and/or complete duffes I am, huh?!

:doh:

No. I just downloaded from AMO just fine. Only took a second. Please just try again, or retry tomorrow. Besides, this server doesn't really have the bandwidth to host an installer for general download. (we have 700,000+ Flagfox users)

There is no desperate need to update this second. The main fix in 3.3.2 gets rid of a (logical, though wrong) error when Flagfox tries to load without an address bar. If you don't have one, just put it back. If you don't have this problem, just update tomorrow. Your computer won't explode in the interim.
