Yup, it's genuine. :) For more info, read the article: What is the Mozilla Maintenance Service?

Thanks, but in future could you please send some installation information whenever something like this is required to be installed. Don't know about others, but I certainly do not push the "yes" button when something unknown pops up and seeks permission.

When you say "...could you please...", I get the feeling that you think I'm a developer or Mozilla employee. I'm not. The people that answer questions here are users just like you, volunteering their time.

If you want to leave feedback for Firefox developers, go to the Help menu and select Submit Feedback.

Sorry Chris - misinterpreted the situation. My bad - thanks for the advice.
