When logging into Firefox on my iMac, a message is flashed up warning me that Firefox will damage my computer and to immediately un-install Firefox - why do I get this warning? Is it to prevent some malware getting into my computer?

Hi donimus, to be honest i can' tell "why do you get this warning?" but if someone install firefox from the official website mozilla.org (or from https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/all/ ) then no damage at all. The official websites DOES NOT contain trojan or rootkit or other virus. :-)

thank you
