The F-Secure extension freezes Firefox in MacOS

Very frequently, Firefox hangs, whatever the URL queried.

This happens whether no Firefox extension installed.

When the following extension is installed:

https://download.sp.f-secure.com/firefox-extension-install/prod/browsing-protection.firefoxextension.xpi

this extension disappears (crashes ?) after some time, so Firefox hangs again.

This has been happening for several months now, meaning occuring with previous and current (14.6.1) MacOS installed versions, and Firefox previous and current (129.0) versions.

There is no problem when F-secure Client Security is desactivated.

Thanks !
