Proxy recorder remains registered in Firefox after recording a test

Troubleshooting


Problem

When recording a test with IBM Rational Performance Tester (RPT), the RPT proxy recorder can remain registered with Firefox after a recording is completed. In some cases, attempts to manually remove the proxy using the Firefox user interface succeed for only the current Firefox session. The proxy configuration reverts to the RPT proxy recorder when Firefox is restarted.

Symptom

When you install Firefox and try to use it with RPT for recording, after your first recording, the proxy is not de-registered with Firefox.  The next time you restart Firefox (not trying to do a recording), the proxy is still registered. Manually removing the proxy through the Firefox UI only fixes the problem for that session.  When you restart Firefox, the proxy is again registered.
