That feature will be added to Firefox fairly soon, probably for Firefox 40. "Signing" was started in the last couple of weeks, and this past week the installation of the first batch of updated and signed extensions was released.

No support yet in Firefox for blocking unwanted software:

You should always be cautious with downloading and installing software and have it scanned by your security software.

its not software it was add-on for real player and why Chrome didn't ask me to downloading this add-on i think Firefox must do something for that
