When I attempted to download I got a warning that this type of file could harm my computer. I don't understand this.

I attempted to download Firefox and a warning came to the bottom left of my screen saying, "This type of file can harm your computer. Do you want to deep Firefox...p7.0.1exe anyway? I don't understand why I would get this warning. I had used Firefox in the past but switched to Google Chrome when Zynga support told me it would work better in the game I was playing on Facebook.

Chrome automatically puts that message when you download any exe file. As long as you downloaded from mozilla.org it's safe to open
