I was browsing and then a firefox update came up and I clicked to download it. The page looked just like the Mozilla page. Anyway, I downloaded it and now I have malware. How can I fix this?

Install, update, and run these programs in this order. (Not all programs detect the same Malware.) They are all free for personal use, but some have limited functionality in the "free mode" - but those are features you really don't need to find and remove the problem that you have.
Note: If your Malware infection is bad enough and you are mis-directed to URL's other than what is posted, you may have to use a different PC to download these programs and use a USB stick to transfer them to the afflicted PC.
