This is what I had to do:
- OSX, find the install.rdf file at ~/Library/Application Support/Firefox/profiles/xxxxxxx/firebug@software.joehewitt.com/install.rdf (On Windows, I guess it should be at C:/Documents & Settings/username/Local Settings/Application Data/Firefox/profiles/xxxxxxx/firebug@software.joehewitt.com/install.rdf )
- Find a node like
- Change the version number in the above node to to 3.5.*.
- Save the file, and restart Firefox. Firebug should now be active, and available for use!
Disclaimer:
Of course there might be something new in firefox3.5 that isn't compatible with Firebug1.3.3, so it might give u some unexpected errors. I've been using it for a while, and its alright at my end. But use it at your own risk :P

an easier way (to make all incompatible extensions work):
about:config --> set "extensions.checkCompatibility" to false
if an extension is giving you problems, disable it until there is an update ;D
@Chris:
sounds neat. Didn't notice that one!
Thanks!
ok, just in case someone tries the extensions.checkCompatibilty - That setting is not available by default. You'll have to right click on the settings page, and create a new > boolean, and then set the value to false.
