I have tried unsuccessfully for quite a while to have a background image in my TBird message signatures. Never really made sense why it would not work as the file looked fine in my HTML editor.

Note: If you have not install Windows Update KB951847 OR not using Windows Update this extension will not be installed. Notice how the ‘Uninstall’ button is greyed out?
