Problem updating

Firefox Installation and updates

We use firefox on a mac. One Mac (english) has no problem, the dutch one has.

In dutch I get the message: "iets voorkomt dat firefox veilig wordt bijgewerkt"

Translated: something prevents Firefox to be safely updated.

We use the last version of FF.

What are the steps to take to find out whats wrong?

Thanks!

It can be fixed by downloading the stub installer for the dutch language package, however since it is detected as unsafe, check your firewall or antivirus to make sure its letting Firefox make outbound connections.
