You can try to open the Mozilla FTP website in Windows Explorer and download the Firefox setup file that way. See "How To Download Firefox On a New Computer Without Using Internet Explorer":


Boot the computer in Windows Safe Mode with network support (press F8 on the boot screen) in case security software is interfering.
