i click the firefox button on my desktop and a window pops up saying what i wrote in my question. i turn the window off and firefox opens normally. it says exactly this: 

Firefox could not install this item because "install.rdf" (provided by the item) is not well formed or does not exist. Please inform the authors about this problem.
