Workaround for Firefox browser not recognized by SLL search engine?
Attempting to add Google SLL (https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/google-ssl-243978/?src=ss) to Firefox (35.0.1 Mozilla FIrefox for Ubuntu canonical - 1.0) fails with the error message "Sorry, you need a Mozilla-based browser (such as Firefox) to install a search plugin." I've tried suggested support pretaining to "useragent", but the suggested "reset" option is greyed in the selection menu. Is there a workaround?

Enabling unauthorized add ins would open the doors to other security risks, I will not recommend this.
If you want to update yourself then you have to install Firefox by downloading the official release from the Mozilla server.
This can happen if you have an extension that blocks content like JavaScript.
Start Firefox in Safe Mode to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem.
- Switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance
- Do NOT click the Reset button on the Safe Mode start window
