I found the issue. There is a translation missing in the file
"locale\de-DE\duplicateContactsManager.dtd" for the label
"removeWithoutAsking". When this translation is added, it seems to work.

I have the very same problem like above. This it says:
XML-Verarbeitungsfehler: Nicht definierte Entität
Adresse: chrome://duplicatecontactsmanager/content/duplicateEntriesWindow.xul
Zeile Nr. 30, Spalte 4: <checkbox id="autoremove"
label="&handleDuplicates.removeWithoutAsking;"/>

I have the same problem using Thunderbird v8.0 with DCM v0.8.1 on Mac OS X
10.6.8 (all with German locale!)
Any ideas, how I can fix the problem? I cannot find the file
duplicateContactsManager.dtd anywhere...
Ideas?

on my mac the analogue path
(/Users/"username"/Library/Thunderbird/Profiles/xxxxxxxx.default/extensions/)
only gives me the xpi, but no folder
({b4447f60-db9c-11da-a94d-0800200c9a66}.xpi)...
can I somehow take a look, what this file contains and edit the .dtd from
within?

Ok, I helped myself and could find a work around for this problem.
I unpacked the xpi (using Ez7z on Mac OS X, but any other unpacker should also
work), found the .dtd file, opened it with text-edit, added a line called
<!ENTITY handleDuplicates.removeWithoutAsking "Entfernen ohne zu fragen">
then I repacked the whole thing (by marking all the files that were in the .xpi
before incl. the edited .dtd file using the system-archiving tool (right-click
--> compress/make archive/whatever)) and renamed the resulting .zip in .xpi.
Then I went to Thunderbird/AddOns and installed the new file -> tada! it works!

Comment 8 also works for the windows version. Tried it myself and now
everything is working! So it is only a single line, to be included in the
german localisation.

Comment 8 doesn't seem to work on TB 8.0 and above. Packed the thing into a
*.zip-file using 7zip. Addon manager says, that the new xpi file seems to be
corrupt, and installation aborts. Any other workarounds?

I have TB version 9.0 and it still works... anyway, the google contacs managing
system works much better than this extension, so in case you have a google
account synced with TB (via Google contacs extension) you can do everything
online much easier.
still I would wish for future version of this great extension that this bug is
fixed, cause I also have adressbooks in TB not synced with google...

Ok, now I tried everything:
finding out, where the file is being installed, and editing it there:
-Went to...
c:\documents and settings\[Username]\Appdata\Profiles\[profile id]\extensions\
-identified and unpacked the file:
{b4447f60-db9c-11da-a94d-0800200c9a66}.xpi
-went to...
\locale\de-DE in the unpacked folder
-edited the *.dtd file as mentioned in comment 8
-if I re-pack the folder usind 7zip into a *.zip and rename it to *.xpi,
Thunderbird deletes it at the next start without any comment
-if I don't re-pack it, leaving it there as a folder, (previously deleting the
original *.xpi) Thunderbird doesn't delete the folder at start, but deacitvates
DuplicateContactsManager in it's addons list (addon-manager).
So, what else can be done to workaround???

You did not mention, that you went to the add-on manager and reinstalled the
new xpi, or was that in your previous post?
