was about to install firefox5.0 update,the screen message said McAfee site advisor is not compatible and would be disabled if I proceeded with the install. This feature with McAfee has worked with prior versions. Now what?

The McAfee site adviser has been blocklisted because it was the #2 top crasher listed at https://crash-stats.mozilla.com for Firefox 5.0 Beta builds at time. It was also a problem with Firefox 4.0 even.

MacAfee has been saying they may have it ready by end of July even though they now have been working on it for at least six weeks if not since mid March even.
