I'm using locked preferences to turn off extensions.blocklist.enabled, plugins.update.notifyUser, and plugins.click_to_play, but new users are still getting "Another program on your computer would like to modify Firefox with the following add-on" when something like Java is added. Is there a preference to automatically allow this? Is there a preference to suppress this message?
