Google Toolbar
Google decided that they will no longer produce the Google Toolbar for Firefox beyond Firefox 4.

McAfee Site Advisor
McAfee Site Advisor is not compatible with Firefox 5. It is McAfee's responsibility to fix that. My understanding is that McAfee had planned an updated release in the 3rd week of July which has now been rescheduled for late August. NOTE: Your McAfee protection is not affected, just that McAfee toolbar that is installed by McAfee into Firefox.
As far as I am concerned, such toolbars are not needed and are a duplication of what is already built in to Firefox. I do Disable the toolbar supplied by my security software provider and just depend on the built in Firefox function:
- Firefox built-in malware and phishing protection
- Warning screens from Firefox:
Firefox 6 is scheduled to be released next week; hope McAfee is taking that into account.

Not related to your question, but...
You need to update some plug-ins:
