I have been trying to recently update the version of Firefox installed on my computer. I have a Toshiba Satellite l305 laptop with a windows vista 32bit operating system. The latest version of Firefox has caused my computer to crash and I have only been able to do a "system restore" to resolve and repair the resulting crash.

If you download Firefox from the Mozilla server then it is OK and you can ignore that warning as it is caused by the file not being digitally signed.
