That's only because you personally don't download it. I can't tell you how many times my uncle has installed a new "search toolbar" for Firefox that I've then had to disable. Luckily, disabling an extension is trivial. For the non-savvy user, though, it's still an issue.
- soapdog 11y agothats why the process changed and now extensions need to be signed and reviewed. Firefox stable will not install add-ons from outside the Mozilla add-ons site by default
