I am trying to connect via SonicWall Virtual Office (VPN) and I'm getting the error message: The add-on from <company site> could not be installed because it does not match the add-on Firefox expected.

This is the first time this particular error has come up. I have other users who are currently using this software.

Suggestions?

Thank you, Ed Resleff

Is this about a signed extension (i.e has a META-INF folder in the xpi file)?
