This is the AVG on your system forcibly installing itself into the
firefox that comes with TBB.  I don't know how to stop things like this
from happening.  Perhaps AVG should ask the user if they want to do
Action X before just assuming so.

: I disabled it and had this message:
: Add-on update security checking is disabled. You may be compromised by updates.

I don't know what this means.  It's not a Firefox message.  Perhaps it's
an AVG plugin message.
