Firefox required me to update the flash player, Norton indicated the flash player I just download may contains virus so I removed it right a way. After the virus scanned, I reboot the computer and I am not able to open the Firefox and other applications on the desktop. I got a message indicated the exe file was corrupted or removed. I really don't want to buy other program to fix this problem.
