Hello everybody,
I´ve installed frontmotion firefox 3.5.3 and the mozilla.adm
Now I have a question on the group policy control of frontmotion firefox:
Is is possible to enable some kind of whitelist, which RELIABLY STOPS a user to download firefox add-ons from pages in the internet, that are not listed on this predefined whitelist? I have tested to lock down undesired websites by activating the following options via GPO:
Mozilla Advanced Options --> Locked Settings --> xpinstall
1) xpinstall.whitelist.required = enabled
2) xpinstall.whitelist.add = update.mozialla.org (e.g), ...
I also switched app.update.autoUpdate and app.update to "enabled".
Unfortunately it is still possible to install add-ons (like yahoo toolbar e.g.) from different (NOT WHITELISTED) websites.
The only difference with enabling these options is a litte message with a control button that is shown in the upper space of firefox when a user
tries to install add-ons from domains, that are not on the whitelist (see attached screenshot). After klicking on the button of this message the installation of add-ons from ANY webpage is possible again.
Could you please give me a hint where I´ve made mistakes? Is there perhaps another way to hinder users from installing add-ons
from websites that are not allowed by the whitelist?
Thanks for your help!!
