It’s just part of being a Firefox user, happens a few times a year. Now though, the extensions are just temporarily disabled, and Firefox will update them as soon as the updates are available.

Or you could just change Extensions.checkCompatibility to false in about:config, download the nightly tester tools , or the hard way:
download and unpack a wanter extension and change the maxversion entry in install.rdf, repackage the extension and install it.

Many not-yet-updated extensions and themes work fine on 3.0a5 and newer nightly versions.

Scrollbar Anywhere works fine in Firefox 2.0.0.4. I just wish it wouldn’t move the mouse around while scrolling because it limits how far the scrolling can go and if the mousebutton is released (depending on which one is set to scroll), the mouse will click the UI control. :/
