Download firefox 4.0, binary file from "mirror. clarkston.edu"?
When I went to download Firefox 4.0 from the Mozilla website it asked me to except a binary file download, titled "mirror.clarkston.edu" is this legit? The binary file was different when I went to update my work computer.

The following is a list of mirrors used to spread the server workload of downloading Firefox. Scroll down to the section "Secondary Mirrors"; under "North America" the 14th item is "Clarkson University".
Are you sure that the link you listed, clarkston is correct?
