Why isn't NoScript being installed?

Under recommendation, I installed Firefox, and was also urged to get the AdBlocker and NoScript add-ons. I was able to install AdBlocker but when I went to get NoScript, a speech bubble popped up and said: "The add-on from addons.mozilla.org could not be installed because it does not match the add-on Firefox expected."

I'm fairly new using Firefox, so I'm not to sure how to go about dealing with this. I would appreciate it if someone would clarify this situation to me or tell me of some sort of solution, as I'm not really good with computers. Just in case it's relevent, my operating system is Windows 7.

Thanks in advance!
