Recent email on the forum indicates that FiddlerHook is compatible
with Firefox 7, however I cannot determin how to install Fiddler as an
add-on in Firfox. Fiddler runs as a stand-alone app, but when I try to
install it as an add-on there is no file for Firefox to incorporate.

Nothing in the user manuals/online help provide asssistance.

Suggestions?

When you install Fiddler, it installs a Firefox plugin by writing a
registry key inside HKLM\Software\Mozilla\Firefox\Extensions

The key is named "fiddl...@fiddler2.com" and points to the folder:
"$INSTDIR\FiddlerHook"

The FiddlerHook options are shown on the Tools menu and in the Firefox
addons/status bar (which is now hidden by default in current versions
of Firefox but can be reenabled on the VIEW menu.)
