My Trend Micro Internet Security keeps removing my Firefox browser, saying it contains "HTTP_TROJAN_REQUEST-46".

I have reinstalled Firefox 3 times already but it keeps getting removed. Not sure what is going on, but I don't think it's a virus on my laptop as my Trend Micro and Malwarebytes scans both came up negative.

Any help would be much appreciated!

Where are you downloading Firefox from? If not directly from Mozilla, maybe you are getting some "extras".

Hi, thanks for your reply. I've been downloading Firefox directly from the Mozilla website.

Nevertheless, I'll try again once again and hopefully it works this time.

Edit: The download didn't work - the programme got removed again by Trend Micro.
