hello Darkheart121, please see if it is working correctly with the full installer instead that can be obtained from https://www.mozilla.org/firefox/all/
It is possible that anti-virus software is interfering with downloading this file.
Try to disable the real-time (live) scanning of files in your anti-virus software temporarily to see if that makes downloading work.
