How to make firefox add-ons universally and not just on a particular user

I have install firefox add-ons no-script on root, but when I login as normal user the no-script add-ons is not installed.

Do anyone know how to make firefox add-ons universal?

thanks a lot!

i downloaded the noscript-1.9.2.8-fx+sm+fn.xpi into /root/download/firefox/add-ons/noscript/

the above happens but I was still not able to install. I'm using centos 5.3

thanks

Your method sound wildly more complicated than the way I do it. What version of Firefox are you using? The noscript extension that I use is a java application. Can't you use the Tools->Add-ons menu item in Firefox to install it?
