Please add INSTALLATION TIMESTAMPS to add-ons/extensions list!

more options

Please add into the add-ons/extensions to list out by installation time-stamp! I do not remember which extensions were added in at which time, so when problems occur it is very difficult to know which extensions to turn off without knowing their installation timestamps!

An as of yet unknown stupid thing got me the hot2014rewards-com-virus, and I cannot deal with turning all of extensions off! A simple time-stamp of each of the installations will provide us with the ability to know which extensions to turn off and try to locate the offending extension(s)!

Addons > Extensions - select an extension then hit the More link = shows the date of the last update (or installation if there was no "update"

No, this does not solve anything, as it still requires users to go one by one thru their extensions.

There is more than enough room in the general listing of installed extensions to include a time-stamp of installation inside the general listing.

Like doctors and the meds they issue, much of the time is looking for a balance of what is needed function wise and protection wise, and what works properly... then add to it those people who stick things inside their extensions who do not inform us they are bundling their things with various types of virus like things we do NOT want to have forced on us.

I have over 40 extensions installed, and try others out from time to time, esp. when a major firefox update comes out a mess of extensions no longer work.

Having the install time-stamp is something I frankly do not understand why this was not part of the original things to do list, it should have been a no-brainer.

So no your response was a totally non-useful suggestion.

Thanks for at least one response.
