It looks like the dephormation plugin needs to be from an HTTPS Secured Site.
If the developer of the dephormation plugin considers it safe to use on Firefox 3, perhaps sourcing it from nodpi.org or another https website may be viable.
That is up to the developer it is his Copyright material.
I have just noticed the Firefox 3 (non beta) is due for Release Tomorrow.

Securing updates
In order to provide a more secure add-on upgrade path for users, add-ons are now required to provide a secure method for obtaining updates before they can be installed. Add-ons hosted at AMO automatically provide this. Any add-ons installed that do not provide a secure update method when the user upgrades to Firefox 3 will be automatically disabled. Firefox will however continue to check for updates to the extension over the insecure path and attempt to install any update offered (installation will fail if the update also fails to provide a secure update method).
