I've been getting what looks to be a Fiefox update warning from onohzpictureme.net, it scans out with Windows Defender as malware?
It happens with 'Weather Underground' web page and when it happens (1 in 10 visits) my Windows Defender catches it, isolates and I delete it. But, it keeps happening - for about a month or so - and I'm wondering if it's from flash player??? I've sent this information to Weather Underground but I haven't heard back yet from them. Any ideas??? The malware/trojan address is from onohzpictureme.net

If you get a pop-up message asking to update Firefox or plugins or scanning for malware then such a message is likely a scam and you should never respond to such an alert to avoid getting infected with malware.
- Only update Firefox via "Help > About" or by downloading and installing Firefox from the Mozilla server and never via a pop-up or link on a web page.
- plugins should only be updated via the plugin itself or by visiting the home page of the plugin.
