RoboForm Works on FireFox 3 RC1!
Yes, finally I got it to work.
For some reason, my upgrade from Firefox 2.xx to FireFox 3 RC1 was seen unsuccessful to Roboform as it keeps telling me the following message:
This Adapter (6-9-89) supports only Firefox ver. 1.5 to 3.0.*.
You are using Firefox ver. 2.0.0.3. This browser is not supported.
Please upgrade RoboForm Adapter to the latest version or downgrade your browser.
Reason: Cannot register component.
When you checked on Firefox Help/About Mozilla Firefox, make you the fine print reads
Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 6.0; en-GB; rv:1.9) Gecko/2008051206 Firefox/3.0
and not
Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 6.0; en-GB; rv:1.9) Gecko/2008051206 Firefox/2.00xx
as roboform will not see it as Firefox 3 RC1.
If after you installed Firefox 3 RC1 and it still appear as 2.00xx, then in order for Roboform to work, you have to uninstall Firefox and install a fresh new Firefox 3 RC1.
Before you uninstall Firefox, you might want to export Bookmark, take note of the Add-ons if necessary though most will be work for Firefox 3.
After reinstall Firefox 3 RC1, reinstall Roboform and it should work.

This solution may not work as the problem is with user agent filter. So the easier solution is
1. Enter about:config into the Location bar
2. Type general.useragent into the “Filter”
3. Right-click each of the three general.useragent preferences and choose “Reset” from the context menu.
