I just received a Norton popup re: attempted malware attack with a high threat level. This malware named Bloodhound.Exploit.33 has only been out a week, so I wanted to pass it on so it can be added to Firefox malware database.

The Bloodhound.Exploit.33 is not new according to https://www.symantec.com/security_response/writeup.jsp?docid=2005-041215-1512-99

Also you should say where it was found or what part of Firefox is the concern. For example anything found in the Cache is harmless if left alone.

Some antivirus client have done false positives with various Mozilla related products before including Firefox.
