As per subject. When I disable the extension and reload the webpage I can once again select text and click on links.

I tried contacting McAfee support and they suggested reinstalling the extension but I don't want to do that just yet. If you already have the extension perhaps you can see if you have the issue? https://marsbase.org/

I'm not sure whose responsible firefox or mcafee?

I've also asked https://superuser.com/q/1525936/627894 here and reported the extension to firefox.

So can anyone with McAfee WebAdvisor replicate this issue so I can forward this onto McAfee support?

Vendor fixed it up on their end. I have no idea what they did (McAfee).
