The problem with search engines is they often have Ad links (on Google it is a small yellow icon) related to the search terms above the Real search results. The Ad links are often times linking to questionable sites.

The adc-apps Ad link is a really long link as that should have raised red flags there. The homepage of software normally has a short clear link like say www.mozilla.org or https://www.mozilla.org/firefox/all/

On that so called adc-apps download site it says near bottom things like "Mozilla Firefox is a software developed by Mozilla. This site is not directly affiliated with Mozilla"

If you search for Firefox you should see www.mozilla.org mentioned in the first or second result.
