How can I modify the about:config page to automatically install/allow a new addon that I dropped in the profile folder?

We are pushing policy to create an add-on for our workstations in our labs. It is the click once .net assistant, and when we push the folder, prefs.js, and config.ini with policy the add on works, but FFx comes up with the 'allow installation' tab every time. Is there a way to enable/install the addon without that page coming up?

We work in a 'frozen' environment (Faronics DeepFreeze), so using policy for fixes like this is nice, but we are hoping to clean it up so we don't see that allow installation tab.

Thanks for the help!
