Hello! Can someone please help me with a problem I'm having? Today a random tab opened up with a legit looking page that wanted me to update my firefox and had a download button. I feel really dumb for falling for it and clicking the download button to install it (I found out a few seconds later that the site isn't legit.) I'm really paranoid about it because I hope that my anti-virus (VIPRE) caught it but it hasn't told me anything. I also deleted the file from the download folder and checked if there were any new installed programs in my computer and everything looked fine to me.

I searched online and found that this has been happening to a few people recently and I want to know if there's anything I can do to make sure that the virus isn't on my pc. Vipre's scans make my computer really slow and I want to know if there's an alternative.

Thank you.

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.
