Is this an occurance of malicious software??
During a google image search, I clicked on an image result, and once the image loaded my browser was re-directed to http://firefoxparts.co.cc/ the page seemed suspect as the grammar on the tab was poor. "firefox needs update" The page advises that Flash needs updating and tries to get you to DL a 204 kb binary file called firefox-update.exe from the above url.
Just wanted to report it as I believe it may be a source of malicious software. Firefox usually brings updates through launch not during google image search.
I have also reported this as web forgery under the help option in firefox.

Yes, this is a very common forgery of the Firefox update page, don't download or run any executables from that page.
You can report these pages yourself: When on the page, use Help -> Report Web Forgery and fill out the form to report the attack site to Google.
Thanks for the report. The original page with the image you wanted was probably compromised to redirect to the malicious forgery.
I have the same problem as mattymo above. My redirect took me to http://ffsupport.uni.cc/ and I noticed (too late I'm afraid) the bad grammar - "firefox needs update" - as well.
I was redirected to this site when I Googled "world time zones" and clicked on one of the map images (http://www.buytitleistgolfballs.com/affiliate_country.php?t=the-official-world-time-clock-time-zone ).
You didn't install or run that firefox-update.exe file?
