It seems that you are not the first one having this problem, a simply search in the forum can do miracles

Have you sure to have installed the script? To be sure you can reinstall it or right click the monkey on the left lower corner of FF and choose "Manage user scripts..." and control if the script appears in the installed scripts listbox.
If the script has been correctly installed according the script author:


It adds a link ("All Starred") to the center section right next to the "Starred" link. Once you click on "All Starred", the script goes and downloads all of the starred items you have and creates a new page listing all of the links.

Uhm I have seen that the last time that the script has been update was in Dec 13, 2005, more than two years ago, a lot probably meanwhile google reader has changed something in the layout and the script has got broken and the author has never updated it.
Try to post a comment on the script page or in the forum if some one can fix it or else if you can code try to fix it yourself, unfortunately I don't use google reader therefore I can't help you any further.

Good luck
