I have what I think is a related probem, in 1.0PR I can't install the
deepestsender extention from deepestsender.mozdev.org. I always get the
installation blocked message no matter what I enter in the allowed sites dialog.
(Windows XP - 1.0PR) 
Flags: blocking-aviary1.0PR?
WFM with Firefox branch build 2004-09-17-09-0.9

note: It shouldn't be necessary to add update.mozilla.org to the Allowed Sites
list.  It is by default whitelisted in a config pref.

Removing user_pref("network.http.sendRefererHeader", 0) or setting it to "2"
(the default) eliminates the problem.

Looks like a dupe of 265135 which has been fixed on Aviary.
