When a download was completed while in Firefox, the download window appeared, and the file would be scanned for viruses. Now I no longer notice the scanning for virus process. What do you think happened, and how can I fix it - believe me, I've looked!
I've searched through extensions and add-ons, and checked Firefox's options and preferences, all to no avail.

you must modify browser.download.manager.scanWhenDone
type in the address bar about:config
then press the button i'll be careful i promise
then type in the bar browser.download.manager.scanWhenDone
then double click on it to set it to true (probably you have it false)
exit firefox and restart-it.
