This is getting ridiculous, this is the 3rd computer that has been infected. I had to start using chrome to get past it. What is with all this bs to contact you. If I wanted to research problems for free I would come to work there.

I continue to get these requests to update firefox, but the update is not from firefox.

The link is below. GET THIS FIXED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1

hi, this is a scam tactic that is trying to trick you into installing malware, so don't download or execute this kind of stuff just because of a popup or redirect on a website! updates are handled automatically by firefox so you don't have to download anything for that (and you can always initiate a manual check for updates in the firefox menu ≡ > help ? > about firefox).

we suspect this is coming form "malvertising" (=ads placed on legitimate websites that redirect you to this fraudulent message), so using an adblocking addon like https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/ublock-origin/ would also help with that.

I found a fake Firefox update
