I'm trying to download Firefox but it won't let me, it tells me that my pc doesn't meet the system requirments. However my system does meet the requirments.

User Agent

Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 8.0; Windows NT 6.0; Trident/4.0; SLCC1; .NET CLR 2.0.50727; Media Center PC 5.0; .NET CLR 3.5.30729; WinNT-EVI 10.03.2010; .NET CLR 3.0.30729; OfficeLiveConnector.1.5; OfficeLivePatch.1.3)

The download script for determining compatibility is confused by that WinNT-EVI tag which was added to your UserAgent in Internet Explorer 8.0 .

You should be able to download it from here. http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all.html Just select the correct localization / language.

Oh, and that WinNT-EVI is your computer telling every site it visits that it's infected with malware too.
