LuKit,

Most likely the issue is due to permissions.  If you installed Firebird 
globally your user account likely does not have permission to install 
search-plugins.  See http://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=123315 
for more information on this topic.

If you can, try changing permissions on the searchplugins directory of 
your firebird installation, so that all users can write to it.

Hope this helps,

Mat
