Browsing Protection in Firefox v57
Recently, Firefox (v57) has disabled Browsing Protection by F-Secure (see messages below). Are there any plans to support this?
"Browsing Protection by F-Secure could not be verified for use in Firefox and has been disabled."
"Starting in Firefox version 57, only extensions built using WebExtensions APIs will work."

Hello,
I am only an F-Secure user (their home solutions).
// later added: It is looks like that it is popular trouble with Firefox 66.0.3; at least, web with a lot of discussions about situation where addons got disabled and marked as legacy. One example is reddit: https://www.reddit.com/r/firefox/comments/bkcjoa/all_of_my_addons_got_disabled_and_they_are_all/
and another one is superuserCom: https://superuser.com/questions/1432789/all-of-my-firefox-add-ons-been-disabled-suddenly-how-can-i-re-enable-them
At the time - there was a discussion about Firefox 57 changes:
And it is sorted after that. So, most of recent F-Secure solutions with support for these changes.
Good to know: what is your OS / platform(?) and what is your F-Secure solution(?). And, maybe, what is version of F-Secure Browsing Protection addon?
By the way, if there a reason to use Firefox 57? While sounds that there are much more fresher updates are available for Firefox?

Perhaps, I tried Firefox 66.0.3 recently with beta F-Secure SAFE solution. All was OK with addon.
Does your experience is about "today"? And does it appeared right after upgrade to Firefox 66.0.3?
Did you try to reinstall F-Secure Browsing Protection addon via F-Secure user interface (for Windows):
But good to know what is your OS / platform. And what is your F-Secure solution.

Hello Ukko,
fyi; encountered the same problem today after Firefox was uodated to 66.0.3. I'm Using F-Secure Safe and the Browsing protection is version 2.220.7818, on a Windows 10 (1809) Home system ( version 17763.475.) I did try with re-install the browser pritection add-on but no result.
Any suggestions?Thanks and best regards

Hello,
Not an F-Secure problem!
The Mozilla foundation has messed up the signing certificate expiry for all Firefox web browser extensions and add-ons, thereby making them invalid during late Friday. It is a huge issue right now and an urgent FF fix is under testing. Read more about it there:
