At the moment, we don't list unreviewed files (or beta files) in the searches on AMO. However, one can still access the file and install it if he has the direct link to the version, or displays all the versions of the add-on.

Once Firefox enforces the signature of files, though, having the link won't help to install that add-on, as it won't be signed.

We should thus modify the message displayed, stating clearly that this file isn't signed and can't be installed in "standard" versions of Firefox.

:jorgev, any ideas on the wording?

How about this:

"This add-on has not been reviewed by Mozilla and can't be installed on release versions of Firefox. Be careful when installing software that might harm your computer."
