You explained the problem very well. The issue is that because of bugs in Mozilla I'm having to install two files to the program directory even if you choose the profile option. No doubt copying files to the program directory requires root access on your system. The original Adblock doesn't do this. But the way it integrates into the browser is wrong and was causing problems in later versions of the browser.

Well you can add your email address to the CC field in this bug report and click on submit. It doesn't seem promising that Mozilla will be fixed soon so I may resort to offering seperate versions for Mozilla:
