I used to have Google Provider and Lightning. My lightning started not working so I removed both lightning and google provider and was simply going to download them again and restart, hoping that would fix the issue. I did just that but now I get an error message when I try to download either add on. It says it's not a safe website and it won't let me go any further. How do I get my calendar back?

Go to the add ons tab and click Extensions. Enter lightning into the search field. Install.

I tried that. It gives an error that says, "There was an error downloading Lightning. Try again." I then tried going directly to the add ons page on Mozilla and it gives an error. The error is attached in a PDF.

That appears to be your antivirus getting in the way.

Odd, I don't have antivirus software on my computer. I'm running on a Mac. I also updated to Firefox 60.0.2 (64 bit). This issue happened before I updated though. Is there some sort of Firefox antivirus that somehow got turned on?
