After updating FireFox and leaving the internet when I tried to reopen FireFox it would not. I removed fire fox from my computer and opened up the internet with Chrome, went to Mozilla and tried to reload FireFox. My AVG virus told me it found a threat: MalSine.InsallC.566. What is this, never had the problem before.

I did go to mozilla's official site to down load, my AVG virus protection alerted this threat to me ( MalSine.InsallC.566 ) and it is the first time it has happen. Because of the name of this file I told AVG not to install this file and the Install discontinued. I tried to look this file up on the Internet and found nothing. I don't know weather to accept it.

Yes try the full setup as some antivirus may be fussy about the stub installer for Windows.
