When will you stop blocking Kaspersky? - until then, I won't use Firefox.

Why should I have to go to the trouble, and risk, of uninstalling and reinstalling Kaspersky? Why did Firefox do that, and why shouldn't they fix it?

Firefox isn't blocking any anti-virus applications or any Security Suites. It will only block add-ons for Firefox which aren't compatible with the version of Firefox which is installed. Lately there's been a bit of a problem for some Firefox users due to 3rd party add-ons not being "signed" or "verified"; with those add-ons the 'fix' is for the developer of the add-on to submit it to Mozilla Add-ons website for verification and for signing. Contact Kaspersky support for help with their add-ons for Firefox.
