Hi, We are using Firefox as our default browser across our organization. We have developed Mozilla Add-on Firefox which will be used by users within our company. After updating Mozilla Firefox to version 43.0 Mozilla browser restricts to install add-on from our intranet web application. It shows message "Firefox prevented this site from asking you to install software on your computer". We are installing the add-on in Mozilla Browser by accessing URL in following format: http://doaminname/appname/addname.xpi

Please guide us here. We really appreciate your help.

http://doaminname/appname/addname.xpi isn't a proper web address.

Tools > Options --> Security = "Warn when sites try to install Addons." Use the Exceptions button and add the website to the "Allow" list.


As far an issue with installing Add-ons that started with Firefox 43, see this. https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/forum-response-signed-add-ons
