Download the complete setup package from here. https://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all.html

Don't use "Run" - save it and then run the Firefox installer after closing IE.

I clicked save, and it downloaded to about 89-90%, then said it could not be downloaded. And my browser crashed again.

I just tried the same thing again, and noticed that it got to 100%, then it said "running security scan", and then it said "cannot download" then crashed.

Can you instruct me on how to do that? I cant seem to find it.

I checked, and windows 7 does not come with an antivirus application. And i have not installed one. I don't know what else to try.

Boot the computer in Windows Safe Mode with network support (press F8 on the boot screen) to see if that helps.

I just rebooted in safe mood, and is currently not allowing me to connect to the WiFi
