Mozilla blocks then unblocks Microsoft add-ons for Firefox

"Specifically, Mozilla began blocking the Windows Presentation Foundation (WPF) add-on and the .NET Framework Assistant add-on. Both of those add-ons were added to Mozilla's blocklist for security issues.

"Late Sunday, Mozilla VP Mike Shaver blogged that the .NET Framework Assistant add-on is now set to be removed from the blocklist but the WPF framework would stay on the list."
