Between all your crashes and now this problem with my anti-virus being disabled, I'm just this close to dumping your browser. I don't know where I'm going to go, but if you don't fix this, I'm gone!

This is about extensions that Kaspersky add to Firefox. Kaspersky hasn't taken the time to make sure that their extensions are signed as is mandatory in current Firefox releases. Kaspersky will still operate just like before and protect you.


Current Firefox releases require extensions to be signed to prevent abuse by malware. In Firefox 43 unsigned extensions will be disabled by default. You can set xpinstall.signatures.required to false to disable this security feature in Firefox 43. In release and beta builds of Firefox 44 and later you can no longer override this.

Your separate Kaspersky antivirus client program should still be functioning normally just to note.
