I tried to download from link on site. I got to the security warning screen and hit run. A box appears that is labeled 7-ZIp and the message says "This operation completed successfully." But no install screen appears.

Solution?

What's your computer system and Firefox version?

Have you tried to just download the file? Sometimes anti-virus can get in the way.

Windows 7 and the latest critical patch. I had problems with it and uninstalled to reinstall. Now this.

The Firefox installer uses 7-Zip self-extracting archive technology internally, but usually it's invisible and you wouldn't see any reference to 7-Zip and the setup would just run.

Do you have 7-Zip installed on this system?

Perhaps you might have better luck with the "full" installer?

If you have previously installed 32-bit Firefox, please see this article before switching to the 64-bit version: How to switch from 32-bit to 64-bit Firefox.
