Unlike some other extensions, it is not listed under programs. Is it stored somewhere in a Mozilla folder, if so which one? Thank you.

You can use this button to go to the Firefox profile folder:

• Help > Troubleshooting Information > Profile Directory: Show Folder

The DownloadHelper extension creates by default a dwhelper folder to store downloaded files.
