Why do I get a warning that this may be dangerous when I try to install?

When I tried to install Firefox, my computer gave me a warning that installing this might be dangerous to my computer. I thought Firefox was safe. I presently have Google and they are going to stop supporting me as I have Vista operating system. I had heard and read about Firefox so I was not expecting a WARNING. I always try not to install anything that looks suspicious. Why the warning?
