Hello,
My company changed its internet security firewall. I recently changed my computer and now I cannot visit the add-on page of firefox. This page is blocked and so I cannot install extensions.
Do you have any idea about how to find the extension from another website or install extensions with a setup file?
I need these extensions

Re: How to install extension without visiting the add-on pag
On the Add-ons page, if you click the Gear Icon drop-down, you can install one from a File. Just browse to where the .XPI file is located. So, you can download and save the extension from another system and copy it over to a USB stick or something. Of course, depending on where you work, they may not like you doing that either.

Good way to get the sack if you get caught
What sort of man would put a known criminal in charge of a major branch of government? Apart from, say, the average voter.

Why are you using such an outdated Firefox 46 version?
Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 10.0; WOW64; rv:46.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/46.0
You can look at the Firefox 52.6.0 esr version if you need to use extensions that aren't compatible with Firefox 57+.
