Interesting idea… I get this though:

Firefox could not install the file at

Why not just use adblock or something like that
Try saving the XPI file to your computer and opening it with Firefox. Let me know if that works.
The main difference between this and the “adblock” extension, is that I made this! It’s my first Firefox extension.
I guess so… are you going to keep it up to date? When grooveshark gets wind of your little operation… they will be changing things up
They could start doing what Craftster does – no CSS, no id’s… just a bunch of nameless tables… That would make it difficult to hide.
Or, they could have a javascript thing that runs every few seconds and changes the ad div to have display=block
You just used greasemonkey to make it hidden right?
yup, and the userscripts compiler to make it a standalone firefox extension
I was about to make this myself until I found your page! Thanks! Adblock Plus wouldn’t collapse that element, so this is great!
