Firefox preventing extension from installing

My computer security program is Frontier Secure (F-Secure). This is a program I have had for may years and have used with Firefox since I installed it. Firefox is now preventing it to install the extension to continue the banking protection I have always used. Firefox is my default browser and I have always used F-Secure's Banking Protection. It works fine from my other browsers. How do we correct this problem?

The F-Secure extension has been blocked by Mozilla, see:

I am aware that Firefox blocked it. I just don't understand why it is blocking a computer security program that it has allowed for years and other browsers don't block the program. I think there is something messed up with Firefox's analysis and think they should review this decision or allow me to override their action.

Mozilla is doing the blocking. It is the Extension that is blocked and not the F-Secure program itself.
