Mozilla Security has found critical process activity and will perform a scan. Found 94 infected objects and wants to install proper software to protect my computer. Do I install?

Firefox

Is it normal for firefox to do this? first time i've ever seen this. I thought my virus protection would do this not the web browser. Should I install?

NO, that's a scam. Fake security scan that has nothing to do with Mozilla, and they're trying to entice you to install malware that will mess up your PC.
