I downloaded the new firefox 5.0. After the download was finished, I tried to do the set up. It brings up the box that says run or cancel. I hit run and then another box comes up that says the file is corupt. I tried to re download it and it is still doing the same thing. is this a problem that is happening all the time or am I doing something wrong?

Download the installer again, and try again. It could be that the installer was damaged.
