While browsing a web site, firefox told me it detected a virus, scaned, displayed infected files and asked to down load a file. Is this a legitimate file or some scam?

I want to know if the virus detection and file are legitimate Firefox software or some scam. I did not continue with the process. My own virus detection only found one infection where as the other found several. I have a copy of the screen if needed.

Thanks Doug

It's a scam, Firefox does not scan for viruses. The site will be trying to get you to install some form of malware/virus/trojan. The scan was not a real scan.
