I use Norton 360 (new). I keep getting by "Panda Cloud Antivirus" download message. Why do I need to download Panda Antivirus
I do not know anything about "Panda Cloud Antivirus" program. A week ago I have purchased and installed Norton 360. When I try to use FireFox, I get blocked from "Panda Cloud Antivirus' threat message : "The web page you are trying to access contains malware and exploits that could infect your computer. We advise you not to continue visiting this page. Your antivirus or security product did not protect you from this malicious page. Protect yourself with Panda Cloud Antivirus! "
This means, I cannot use FireFox unless I download Panda Cloud Antivirus.
Please suggest what I should do.

Hey kagrawal2009,
That sounds like some serious malware behavior. NEVER download a program that tells you is the only way to remove some threat. It will always make the problem worse!
It sounds like you are already infected. Please see Troubleshoot Firefox issues caused by malware.
