doesn't show in FF 5.0b3

[GoogleCodeExporter]

There is no longer an entry in the add-on bar for ShowIP. I looked through the 
available buttons in "Customize Toolbar" and found what seems to be a drop down 
button for ShowIP. But when I click it, an empty menu(? or at least just a very 
small rectangle) appears.

I was using ShowIP 1.0, now updated to v1.1rc3, with no result. I'm using 
Firefox 5.0b3 on Windows 2008 R2 SP1.

Could you try installing the add on status-4-ever? it works fine in that for 
me.

Hmm, I just tried in a fresh profile under Linux and it works as expected. Did 
you upgrade from 4.0 to 5.0b3 or did you start with a fresh profile?

It was an update from 4.0.1 t0 5.0b1 and so on to b3 ("following" the beta 
channel).

I tried in a new profile to install ShowIP 1.1rc3, and at first it worked, but 
as soon as I installed other add-ons that deal with the add-on bar, it was gone 
again (I usually use extended status bar, and I also tried status-4-evar 
suggested above).

After a bit of uninstalling and reinstalling the three (extended status bar, 
ShowIP and status-4-ever), I finally managed to have ShowIP visible. I don't 
know if this is an incompatibility between the first two add-ons, a bug in one 
of them or even a FF bug (it is a beta, after all).

If it doesn't appear in the addon-bar, is it possible to add it via View > 
Toolbars > Customize?

I've installed v1.1 on another FF5.0b3 on Windows XP SP3. As I already said in 
my first post, I was able to add it from the Customize Toolbar box, but it 
seemed inactive (it kept showing only "ShowIP" and left- or right-clicking it 
didn't do anything). But, as it turns out, you need to restart the browsers 
afterwards and it works. Just dragging it to the add-on bar or toolbar doesn't 
"activate" it. My apologies for the noise.

Is the addonbar / statusbar shown at all?
