Bug Description

Steps to reproduce:

I tried to add a couple of Search Engines to Firefox 25.0.

Actual results:

The plugin was not installed. I received the error message "Sorry, you need a Mozilla-based browser (such as Firefox) to install a search plugin.".

Expected results:

A new Search Engine should have been installed.
