[LINK] Firefox Add-ons Stuff-up

If you use Linux (Ubuntu at least) go to about:config, search for
xpinstall.signatures.required and toggle to 'false'. Add-ons worked again for
me after that, but I read other people still had issues. Once the problem is
fixed by Firefox, change the setting back to 'true'.
