lol i mean manually manually!!!!
first download .xpi file
open it with winrar
open \defaults\preferences\prefs.js in the content
copy all the pref(s) to \(profile dir)\prefs.js at the end... and don't forget to add "user_" in front of the pref... making them "user_pref... "
the first line of the prefs is usually --> extensions.***********.description
make a dir in \(profile dir)\extensions\, name it *******
copy all the contents from the xpi to that dir
go back to profile dir... open extensions.ini
u'll see -->
Extension0=N:\Software\FireFox\extensions\blah blah blah
Extension1=N:\Software\FireFox\extensions\blah blah blah
etc....
add another line at the bottom
Extension2=wherever your new made dir is...
save everything while firefox is not running, double check in the task manager...
voila! all done, now open firefox... and u'll get a msg telling u that a new add-on has just been installed...
hmm this took me 20min to figure out... don't u just hate it when the admin set the xpinstall.enabled to false and locked it...
well not a problem now
oh... an alternative method would be install all the addons u want on ur personal computer and copy the entire profile folder to the "target" machine... but it could be time consuming and u might want to just add one addon for emergency... purposes... whatever
