XPCOM makes my head hurt. It is the only language/system/etc that I haven't been able to understand. It shouldn't be that hard to compile a simple C++ file into a component, and then have that component accessable by the FF extension (I know how to do the latter, it is just compiling it I am having problems with).
I am able to work on other parts of the extension for now, but I put out this plea for anyone experienced with XPCOM and C++ (I am all good with C++, but XPCOM and C++, ouch). If you are experienced with XPCOM and C++, please email me, josh@joshhendo.com. It would be great if you could join the project (see the main page), but just been able to help me compile some simple C++ code into a component would be great.
BitFox won't get anywhere without any help. Hopefully Ben from FireStorm will get back to me soon and put me in the right direction!

I wish i could help you...
but i see that noone answers..
did you try in developing forums to ask for help there if help doesn't come... go to search for it :)
I have joined the XPCOM and Extension mailing list, and will ask there for some help!
Hopefully, when I get this done, BitFox should start to look more... real :).
