Some Firefox-recommended or featured plugins are blocked by Firefox when trying to download them. How come if these are on Firefox'swebsite?

It's as written..! Firefox's website recommends, features or lists plugins. When you try to donload some of them, Firefox blocks redirecting the "download" request to the appropriate site. Case in point today: Lazarus Recovery.

Waht is the user to tink? That the block is erroneous or that the featured plugin is not trust-worthy, in which later case why feature it?

Do you mean this?

  • Firefox > Preferences > Advanced > General : Accessibility : [ ] "Warn me when web sites try to redirect or reload the page"

Not helpful! It's not about just warning me; it's telling me it has blocked the redirecting to the source website. My choice is ignoring the warning, overidding it and taking a chance, or heeding it. If the plug-in is suspect, why feature it on Firefox's website? If it is not, then why the block (back to my original question...)?
