downloaded Firefox 27, now my PC keeps automatically redirecting me to maliscious websites telling me my java, and video player are out of date as well as windows updates. virus and adware scans are not picking up anything on my PC. 

 where can i get a previous version of firefox? i know that when i am on a Microsoft or firefox site it doesn't redirect on its own
