I am a member of Nielsen Computer App. Why did Firefox quit allowing me to use/add this extension?? I guess if this is going to be a problem I will uninstall Firefox AGAIN and go with Chrome. I really like Firefox, but this is so upsetting that I cannot add the Nielsen Extension like before.

According to SystemLookup, it isn't actually a Firefox extension, but a third-party program, causing Firefox to believe an extension has been installed by editing Windows Registry entries. This is usually done to avoid Mozilla's security checks that any extension must pass before being published on addons.mozilla.org.

I strongly advise you not to use it, as it may compromise your privacy and safety.

Hi,

Could you please give the exact extension's name or its homepage link?

Thank you! However, I can't see any mentions of a Firefox extension on the website. Do they provide a direct link?

It was on my Firefox extensions a month or 2 ago under Nielsen Netsight. I got rid of Firefox back then because I was having issues with Firefox. I got problems worked out and reinstalled Firefox last week. I noticed in my extensions you could see Nielsen Netsight in the extensions I had before, but it was faded and not clickable any longer.
