I understand that you are receiving an error that says that Firefox needs to be verified. Please make sure that a firewall or antivirus is not blocking the download and please make sure it is coming from the official download:
This is about installing an extension in Firefox.
- FoxVox :: Add-ons for Firefox: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/foxvox/
Does this happen with all extensions or only with FoxVox?
It is possible that there is a problem with files in the profile folder that store the extensions registry.
Delete the extensions.* files (e.g. extensions.json, extensions.ini, extensions.sqlite) and compatibility.ini in the Firefox profile folder to reset the extensions registry.
New files will be created when required.
See "Corrupt extension files":

If you see disabled or not compatible extensions in "3-bar Menu button/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions" then click the Tools button at the left end of the Search bar to check if there is a compatibility update available.
If this didn't help then delete Add-ons.json and possibly prefs.js in case there is a problem with preferences.
You can use this button to go to the current Firefox profile folder:
