I tried to download Firefox on a new Dell laptop, and it interrupts the download at about 75%, each time

I bought a new Dell laptop, and I tried to download and install Firefox to use as my default browser. Each time I tried to download Firefox, as it got to about the 75% mark, I get an error message that says "download interrupted". I can't get it to go any further. Could some of the embedded software on the Dell be blocking Firefox? How can I overcome this and get my Firefox back?

There is a full setup at www.mozilla.org/firefox/all you can try as the small stub on www.mozilla.org is a online installer.
