Firefox 3 and my D-link router don't get along

Since switching to FF3 from FF2 I can no longer log into my DIR-625 router using Firefox. IE6 works fine. I'm running XP pro x86 sp3. Turning windows firewall off has no affect on the problem. I'm using AVG 8 free BTW.
Here is the error I get. Weird as FF otherwise works fine.

It was as fresh as possible without reloading the OS. Uninstalled FF2 rebooted did some cleanup then installed FF3.

When you uninstalled FF2, did you erase your existing profile?

This may help.

Re: Firefox 3 and my D-link router don't get along

I found the problem. I had installed an add-on I never used before as it was recommended by Mozilla after the FF3 install. DownloadHelper 3.1
