Some time ago I had an addon that passed all downloads to my antivirus application ( Avast at that time) for checking before completing the download.

Two firefox upgrades later I seem to have lost this addon and i can't find it in the mozilla approved list of addons.

I can't remember the name, so I can't Google for it.

Can anyone help please ?

Windows XP
Firefox 3.0.5

The add-on was probably ClamWin Antivirus Glue. It's not supported by Firefox 3, but it's completely unnecessary anyway if you're using the Windows (rather than Linux) version of Firefox. Downloads are automatically routed via your antivirus software, without the need for any add-ons, by Firefox 3.
