How can I suppress a recurring pop-up in Firefox that claims my computer is infected with a virus and it instructs me to download McAfee Antivirus to clear it out. I've done multiple scans with my Norton Antivirus which showed I had no viruses. The fake pop-ups appear to be coming from Firefox.

I thought Firefox was all about controlling personal info. Seems not. I find nothing in the GUI to turn off the location country flag in the address bar.
