Windows Internet Explorer 9 will not allow me to download Firefox. How can I fix this?

more options

Running Windows Vista with Internet explorer 9. Need to download Mozilla Firefox. I get to the Firefox download page, click on the Download button. I get at message asking if I would like to save the Firefox Setup Stub, which I did. A small extra window appears, presumably for the installer download, but nothing ever appears in it. The download page says that if the download does not begin shortly to "click here". I did that and nothing happens. Please help!

Try using the full download installer, rather than the "stub" installer.
