Yesterday, I noted that the add-on XPL LinkScanner Lite was not compatible with Firefox 3. I heard back from support today. Here's the meat of the email:
We have added Firefox 3 support into LinkScanner and this is currently available in AVG Anti-Virus and Internet Security versions 8.0.125 and later. We do have plans to release an update to the older stand alone LinkScanner 2.7 to support existing customers. The update will contain support for Firefox 3. This is currently scheduled for release by the end of July. NOTE: When using LinkScanner Pro with Firefox 3 your online activities are still protected via active exploit and malsite blocking. Only the SearchShield functionality (search icons) is missing from Firefox 3.
Update (June 19th, 2008): An interm hotfix to add support for Firefox 3 is now planned for the week of June 30th. A full update to LinkScanner 2.7 is still planned for the end July.

hotfix released in June 30th? So that means firefox will send it via its updates?
I wouldn't think so, given that this particular add-on never worked through Mozilla's official add-on mechanism before. But I will try to remember to post the details, however it happens.
At last, they've addressed the incompatibility with firefox 3.0+! :-)
Thanks for letting me know, Anon.
