After restoring folder Firefox still wants to mount image

I encrypted the Firefox data using the application template. Then I changed my mind and restored the Firefox folders from within Espionage. Now when I start Firefox it still wants to mount the sparseimage from the trash. Despite that the Firefox folder has been restored into Application Support. How can I de-associate Firefox from the mount action?

Hi Tom,
Thanks for sending the report. Based on it this doesn't seem like it's a problem with Espionage necessarily, but could be some unrelated issue.
I'm not sure why you're seeing that prompt, but it's not brought up by Espionage (it's the standard OS X password prompt for disk images). I would recommend the following:
Check to make sure your Firefox folder is really a normal folder and also make sure you have a backup of the stuff inside of it. Then, locate this sparseimage (for which the prompt is being brought up), and delete it (you may want to make a copy of it to an external drive first, just in case). This sparseimage may be located in your Trash, in which case, empty your trash. Then restart your computer.
Hopefully that'll fix the issue.

I'm having the same problem here? I also restored both folders. Anyway, did the suggested solution work for you Tom? I'm about to try it. FYI: when i type the password that i used to use for ff it doesn't work.

Emptying the Trash and therefore removing the sparseimage solved the problem. Firefox is now using its proper folder in Application Support again.
