How To Disable Extension Install Delay

Usually when you install an addon a dialog box pops up and you have to wait three seconds to click "Install". You can remove this delay by editing "about:config".

1. Type about:config into the Firefox address bar and hit enter.
2. Click on "I'll be careful, I promise!" button.
3. Enter security.dialog_enable_delay into the Filter text box. Double click on that preference value and change the value to 0

Or you can install an addon!
