Spellbound Plugin

  1. Download spellbound_0.7.3.xpi from the download page of Spellbound to someplace like "c:\temp\"
  2. Temporarily rename it "spellbound_0.7.3.ZIP", open with Winzip and edit the "install.rdf" file
  3. Change "<em:maxVersion>1.0+</em:maxVersion>" to "<em:maxVersion>1.5.*</em:maxVersion>"
  4. Replace "install.rdf" in the zip file with the version you just edited.
    Rename it back to "spellbound_0.7.3.xpi"
  5. In Firefox, put "C:\Temp\spellbound_0.7.3.xpi" (assuming you put it in C:\Temp\) and hit the INSTALL button when it comes up.
