Firefox opens a pop-up download window for a file named "c.php" randomly.
When I startup Firefox, as well as at other random times during web browsing or downloading on Mac OS X, a pop-up window appears asking me to save or open the file named "c.php", supposedly from the site soclnet.com.
But I've never been to that site, much less requested to download anything. I checked that domain today and the it's just a blank page. The domain is registered through Enom and it's a private registration, so there's no info about who really owns it.

- Make a new profile as described at Profile Manager - Create, remove or switch Firefox profiles.
- Do a clean reinstall as descrbied here.
If the issue still happens:
- Download and run every program at these malware removal links: http://www.safer-networking.org , http://www.malwarebytes.org , http://www.spywareterminator.com , http://www.microsoft.com/security/malwareremove/default.aspx
- Repeat steps 1 and 2.
This has no effect, and it doesn't apply to the situation. There is no malware on the system, and even if there were, those sites you listed are all for Windows, which is clearly not what I'm running.
