Known Issues
When viewing a Powerpoint or Excel spreadsheet users are being prompted by Firefox to install an add-on. Why?
Answer
The add-on is required for a feature of this plugin that we DO NOT support. Firefox is just being helpful.

This can be fixed by clearing all Stellar-related cookies and restarting the browser.
