I clicked to upgrade to Firefox 4.0

I was offered an upgrade from http://"bla, bla 'mirror' bla, bla, .au" - sounded very fishy to me!! I wish I had written it down exactly.

When I went back, without closing, I got the same download offer, except this time from http://3347-mozilla.voxcdn.com.

Is this one safe? How do I tell if it's really from Mozilla, or if it is from a mirror site?

Firefox is distributed by using a series of mirrors around the world. Voxcdn is one of the primary mirrors in North America.
