Also, according to the user script instructions, they apparently say
that when Greasemonkey is installed, it should also add a new entry to
the "Tools" menu called "Install User Script". However, this is not
true in my case and I do not see it. I can get to the Greasemonkey
options through the Firefox add-ons manager, but even the Greasemonkey
options don't allow anything.
Someone please help.

Especially the steps about checking the error console, and trying a
fresh profile.
Unfortunately I tried everything that the troubleshooting wiki page
you referenced instructs to do. Specifically, the error console does
not report any specific info pertaining to Greasemonkey at all. Thus,
clicking on the "Install" button link of a user script download page,
again, does nothing, and no information is passed to the Error Console
at all in regards to this specific action.
I tried creating a new profile and installing Greasemonkey on the new
profile, but still no change or difference at all.
Please let me know if there is anything else I can do. I eagerly want
to install this "Remove All Facebook Ads" user script, but nothing is
working. Any script page with the "Install" button link simply does
nothing when clicked on.
With no error console output and nothing else happening, I need to turn
to the rest of the steps on that page. Can you confirm that
Greasemonkey is installed and enabled, and explain how you confirm these
facts?
If you look in the bottom-right hand corner of the screen you should
see a 'monkey' icon. If it is grey, the execution of scripts is
disabled, otherwise the icon should be colourful (specifically, shades
of brown and black). Alternatively, if you right-click on this icon
you should see a menu-option called 'Enabled'. If there is a checkmark
next to this option then the execution of scripts is enabled,
otherwise click it to enable it.

That is good. It's definitely installed.

Could you post (a link to) a screenshot of this window?

That's not good. Something is definitely broken, and at a very low
level for that behavior to happen. Does something show in the error
console after a fresh launch of Firefox?
( 2 ) Go to the following link for a screenshot of the "Manage User
Scripts" window that I am referring to >>

( 3 ) As requested, what I did with an open session of Firefox, is
first clear all messages in the Error Console, then closed Firefox
program. Then confirmed Firefox executable was indeed "not" present in
the processes list of Windows Task Manager to confirm it has been
closed. Then opened Firefox back up and immediately opened up the
Error Console window, which only reported the following data:
Entering mode Normal ESM=false
Warning: Unknown property 'zoom'. Declaration dropped.
Source File: http://www.google.com/firefox?client=firefox-a&rls=org.mozilla:en-US:official
Line: 1
And you say you followed the fresh profile steps and it still happens?
I'm pretty flummoxed. There's just a few more details, as listed here:
http://wiki.greasespot.net/Greasemonkey_Manual:Getting_Help
That _might_ help. But something seems to generally be very wrong.
With this in mind, I suppose I will simply have to disable the
ZoneAlarm toolbar and hope that doesn't compromise the functionality
of ZoneAlarm. Under ideal circumstances, I would really like ZoneAlarm
and Greasemonkey to work together just fine. Maybe there is a fix to
get ZoneAlarm and Greasemonkey working together on Firefox?

That makes no sense. Of course it "still" points to that version, as it
was only released yesterday.

This statement is patently false.

Follow all the steps I told him to. Take a look at the wiki pages
mentioned in this thread. Do what they say, and tell us what they tell
you to tell us. We can't do anything without information.
http://wiki.greasespot.net/Troubleshooting_(Users)
If you follow those instructions and get to the point where they say you
should ask for more help, there's a lot more details it asks for. We'll
need those to help.
