Why does options/preferences page keep showing on startup?

In versions prior to 3.3, your preferences are stored as a cookie in Firefox and cookies are being cleared on startup. Either disable clearing cookies or exclude the clearing of the auto-sort-bookmarks cookie. Starting in version 3.3, preferences are no longer stored as a cookie.

How do I change the language used by the add-on?

My default Firefox add-ons use the language specified by the Operating System (OS). If the ASB add-on supports your language, then use the following guide to override the language specified by the OS: Testing out your extension. If your language is not supported, then you can use the "Translation" feature to provide your own custom translation. Send me your exported translation file if you would like contribute.

Why does the addon need to access Firefox history?

I created a wiki page to list the permissions requested by the ASB add-on and the corresponding usage.
