it looks legitimate that claims Firefox is affiliated with this site. It keeps prompting me to update my browser. It looks suspicious. The file name that it tries to download is firefox_setup.exe

When I attempt to install keeps asking for my permission to change search engines and tool bars, I cancelled the installation until i hear back from anyone.

Please let me know if this is a legitimate browser update.

No Mozilla is not affilated with that site, and whatever you are downloading from browser-update.net is malware

Scan with all programs below

Microsoft Security Essentials is a good permanent antivirus for Windows 7/Vista/XP if you don't already have one.

And always download firefox from mozilla.org
