Nectar Search Bar removed

I have been a lover of Firefox for many years, however my trust is being squeezed away by your attitude. I like to use the Nectar Search Bar and a few versions of Firefox ago it was removed. I was forced to roll back to the previous version in order to use my toolbar. A later version just gave me a warning that the Toolbar was not approved - fine, I'm happy with that. But now FF has updated to v43 automatically and the Toolbar has been deleted. Mozilla is getting like Microsoft, forcing users into situations they do not ask for. I appreciate the security issue, but I'm happy to use this Toolbar and caused me no problem for a few years. Just because no-one has tested it, it's deemed to be a rogue. I don't know what you changed in v43, but let users have the say for Add-On's they like to use. Please correct ASAP or I will be using a different browser. Thank you.

I have the same problem and have now given up on Firefox. This has happened several times before when they do an uodate and is a total pain.

It's nice to know I'm not the only one with this problem! Previously I contacted Nectar but as they rightly said, it's not their problem!

Is there anyone from Mozilla on here who can help??

Why is it that firefox don't bother to fix such a simple problem? If we can download the toolbar and keep it until next firefox update, surely the problem comes from firefox. WHY DON'T THEY DO SOMETHING? I like firefox best, but donations are obviously not enough for them to listen to their supporters.
