I recently ran the check plug-ins for updates. VLC media plug in was listed outdated.

Greetings, Win 7 32 bit FF 38.0 I recently ran the check plug-ins for updates. VLC media plug in was listed outdated. I clicked on update plug in. The update web page I was directed to is flagged by Norton as unsafe. While Norton says the website itself does not pose a threat, it lists Hirens.BootCD.15.0.zip as a threat. So my question is: is this a false positive for VLC plug in update? Should I not get any updates from this website? Thank you in advance for your help and guidance. Below is the warning Norton displayed for that webpage.
