    Hi Mark!

    This is part of a new security feature in Firefox from version 42 where they check all extensions for malware. We're working on getting our extension approved, but it's more complicated for us that it is for most extensions.

    As you are using Nightly, you can disable the signed extension check by setting xpinstall.signatures.required to false in about:config. Be aware that this does open you up to malicious extensions, so make sure that you trust any other unsigned extensions you may install.
