Not a problem here:


Check your settings in Firefox. I'm running the latest Free Beta version of Avast

I would remove the add-on from FF, do a Repair of Avast and wait for FF to again notify you of the add-on.
It may take 24 hrs after you've done the repair before you receive the notification.

If Repair doesn't fix the problem, try the following:
Clean Install of Avast:
