Apparently, the new version of Propfire has caused issues with Firefox 2.X installations. Until this is resolved, you might want to either:
Revert to Propfire version 0.73.12
The old versions of Propfire can be found here:

Yes, Propfire 0.73.15 doesn't work on Firefox 2. It displays the labels, but no data.
Could you please mark 0.73.15 "incompatible" with Firefox 2, so that Firefox doesn't prompt thousands (?) of current users to automatically install it?
For those who struggled to find the old version 0.73.12 that works fine with Firefox 2, I finally downloaded it by taking the official download link and changing the last part from propfire_0_73_15.xpi to propfire_0_73_12.xpi.
(Since this is my first post, I can't post a direct URL link to version 0.73.12).
73,

Right you are Bob.
This has been an annoying upgrade process - sorry about that. I've tweaked the add-ons/downloads page to mark Propfire 0.73.15 as being compatible with FF 3.X and beyond. Hopefully, that will stop the automagic updates for those still using FF2.X. I have not yet researched (and may not) the reason that the new rev of Propfire will not display solar/radio propagation data in Firefox 2.x. So, for now, the best course is to either upgrade to FF3 or downgrade to the old rev of Propfire.
Thanks for the link to the old rev as well. The old rev of Propfire is also available on the Firefox AddOns site.
