A tech at McAfee told me that Site Advisor won't work with Beta versions. Will Firefox develop a way for my SiteAdvisor to work with this latest version. SiteAdvisor worked until I updated to this latest verision.

Sounds like a real "gem" of a tech you got at McAfee support. Firefox 5.0 was released on June 21 - almost 3 weeks ago, so it hasn't been a "beta" for awhile.

The McAfee Site Advisor add-on for Firefox was the #2 cause of crashes in the Firefox 5.0 betas, so Mozilla has Blocklisted it, after discussing it with McAfee.

McAfee is said to be re-writing that add-on, and said the new version should be available in the 3rd week of July.
