If you're still not being hit, and if the browser console doesn't accept the input, is it enough to get from the WebConsole

    Math.floor( (new Date()).getTime()/1000 )
and paste the number in "app.update.lastUpdateTime.xpi-signature-verification" to be off the hook for the next 24 hours?

Uh... if that outputs a unix date yes (I think) except you need to restart the browser afterwards as well.

Yes, the JavaScript's getTime() is in milliseconds since Jan 1 1970 and the C time_t (which is what I think is used as a timestamp) is in seconds.
