The phone number is a scam and Mozilla has never had phone support either directly or by third-party.

This problem may be a result of malware installed on your computer, that you may not be aware of.
You can try these free programs to scan for malware, which work with your existing antivirus software:
- Microsoft Safety Scanner
- MalwareBytes' Anti-Malware
- Anti-Rootkit Utility - TDSSKiller
- AdwCleaner (for more info, see this alternate AdwCleaner download page)
- Hitman Pro
- ESET Online Scanner
Microsoft Security Essentials is a good permanent antivirus for Windows 7/Vista/XP if you don't already have one.
Further information can be found in the Troubleshoot Firefox issues caused by malware article.

And do not bother calling that phone number.
( Feeling adventurous? Maybe you could call that number, record the conversation and file a complaint with police. Just ensure that you do not connect the computer to network while you call them and make sure you are not giving them a remote access to your computer. Try not to give any personal information to them. Maybe use a pseudo name. )
Is there a reason you are running a very old version?
