hi
i think it is adware, multiple scanners detected it, if you want confirmation, send it to newvirus@kaspersky.com for analysis.

*Any* extension or plug-in that is not supported by Mozilla itself should be avoided. I haven't seen it on the Mozilla add-on site, so even if it is not adware, I would advise against it... If there is a link for this utility on the official Mozilla site (I might have missed it), then you can safely install it...
