In my opinion this icon what you mentioned is related to Firefox installer file.

the Icon is related to the installer file... so how do I get an icon on my desktop that i can click on to go on the internet?

Strange but Firefox icon shouldn't appear like Yahoo_Firefox. Please uninstall that and try uninstalling an re-installing Firefox,


Install Firefox

If you have correctly installed it, you should see the icon of the Firefox browser in the Windows start menu.
