Adding the MyPoints Toolbar!
I have tried several times to add the Mypoints Toolbar and have been stopped by Mozilla Firefox, which I have just installed today, again. When I attempt to have complete installation, I get a puzzle piece in the top left hand corner of the browser window that tells me "The add on could not be loaded because of a connection failure on www.mypoints.com." The version of Mozilla Firefox I have downloaded is the most current one available at this time. It was a suggestion from MyPoints at the following website: https://www.mypoints.com/emp/u/toolbar/v4/simply_search.vm that either IE or Mozilla Firefox would be adequate. I am not finding it so. Do you have any suggestions so that I may tell MyPoints.com Customer Service for any other of their members who have similar issues?

I do not see this on the blocklist

Does that work for you ?
The toolbar appeared to be available from there. I did get a drop down warning / doorhanger appearing top left but not with the wording you mention. I appear to have the option to allow download and installation.
I was not going to proceed any further as it is not the sort of site or software I have any confidence in.

My dear feer56, if there was a way to take a "screen shot" of the problem. I would gladly do so. That is why I have given as much a description as I can possibly do. Have you read the description in its entirety? When I gave the description, I was in a Mozilla Firefox browser. is there a way I can be any more helpful to get this resolved?
That toolbar is a bunch of crap and Firefox is blocking you from using such crap.

Sorry for your bad experience with the MyPoints toolbar, but I've been a member since 2005 and just LOVE IT! In MY opinion, the MyPoints toolbar is not crap.

Thank you, thank you, thank you! You are wonderful!
Glad to have helped. Thanks for posting back.
I based my "crap" statement on the two links I gave, not my own experience. Sorry about that.
Thank you for your help, anyway!
