Is this site really yours and legit using mozilla and firefox on their page/tab name or bogus and/or dangerous.

Was directed to this site with tab labeled Mozilla Security has found ...: http:// update95 .knoess .ce .ms/index.php?Q/DhatRPbcxG3XrDM+lLbS53E8v4DjeYoYTyngd1pJ3VOC/lhIEpY1FbqwPgtFrZsPShnynEH98xAJp/pGfLTETUZYTJTO0MKRgCskTO, and advised to run: InstallInternetProtection_499.exe

By the way, just noticed some plugins you are showing (below) that are new to me. Do you recognize any as unsafe or questionable. As far as I know they are not related to above ? just wondering.

That site is not from Mozilla. If you have the Firefox safer browsing features turned on and now try to access the site, Firefox will block the site warning that it is a reported attack page.

What is and Where do I find the "safer browsing" feature?

The safer browsing options are turned on by default. In the options window go to the Security panel. The 2 safer browsing features are "Block reported attack sites" and "Block reported web forgeries".

I am running Firefox ver 3.6.17, for Ubuntu 10.04 canonical - 1.0. When I click on some Pictures to down load, my Firefox Browser turns into a Internet Explorer Browser with a Warning Window stating my "system has been Infected. Click on this button to download Cleaner or Click on the other button to exit"!? I cannot make this Fake Explorer go away. Can you explain what is happening?
