Keep getting an urgent download message from this URL, what should I do? https://leidaharding.org/5823093646615/fed49fa542ebe67042c551f9d149d01b.html
Hi, this page keeps popping up on my computer with an "Urgent Download from Firefox", message with the correct Firefox symbol, etc. But I don't think it's legit. Any help as to what it is and what I should do. Thanks

This is not a legitimate message. Do not download anything from this popup.
This message is likely caused by malware installed on your system. You can try these free programs to scan for malware, which work with your existing antivirus software:
- Microsoft Safety Scanner
- MalwareBytes' Anti-Malware
- Anti-Rootkit Utility - TDSSKiller
- AdwCleaner (for more info, see this alternate AdwCleaner download page)
- Hitman Pro
- ESET Online Scanner
Microsoft Security Essentials is a good permanent antivirus for Windows 7/Vista/XP if you don't already have one. Windows 8 has antivirus built-in already.
Further information can be found in the Troubleshoot Firefox issues caused by malware article.

Actually it has not been determined to be caused by malware on Windows systems but due to one or more Ad systems on websites. there is a new disposable site or two everyday used for this scam.
