McAfee Site Advisor 3.4.0 just came out of the addons blocklist, and you have SiteAdvisor and even though that is the current; nevertheless, you should uninstall it and reinstall it as noted in https://community.mcafee.com/message/203466 for a fresh version with only current files.

Also refer to http://kb.mozillazine.org/Problematic_extensions relating to McAfee Site Advisor 3.4.0 for more specific instructions.
