Hi, it's a scam to infect you with malware! NEVER EVER click on anything like that.

If you are in any doubt about the authenticity of update pop-ups etc., it's best to ignore them and check for yourself by opening the 3-bar menu > Help (question mark at bottom right) > About Firefox. Alternatively, you can press the Alt key to bring up the main menu bar > Help > About Firefox. More - Update Firefox to the latest release.

You can try these free programs to scan for malware, which work with your existing antivirus software:

Note that not all removal programs will detect all malware, so you may need to run several or all of them.

Microsoft Security Essentials is a good permanent antivirus for Windows 7/Vista/XP if you don't already have one. Windows 8 has antivirus built-in already.

Further information can be found in the Troubleshoot Firefox issues caused by malware article.

If your question is resolved by this or another answer, please take a minute to let us know. Thank you.

Its a scam ad (that has been popping up for a couple months now) made to trick inexperienced Windows and or Firefox users into downloading a fake firefoxpatch.exe

If you were to manage to install this exe it would likely install CryptoLocker, a ransomware trojan, though you said it was blocked thankfully.

So far it seems to target Windows Firefox useragents as I have yet to see posts from Mac OSX or Linux users, which makes sense as those OS's does not use .exe
