Does Firefox offer an Flv media player download and if so may I have the link?

I am attempting to watch a video on line. I am redirected to a page that offers a download powered "Media Player". I need to know if this is your product as it does not appear to be. The message carries the Mozilla Firefox emblem. The message reads

"Your Video Player might be outdated Please update to the latest version for better performance Powered by Media Player"

Whenever you get a message / popup that software / files need to be updated,

DO NOT USE ANY OF THE PROVIDED LINKS.

While this may be a legitimate message, it could also be Malware or a Virus. Any time you want or need to check for upgrades, go to the web site of the True Owner of the program in question. For example, to check out Firefox, go to Mozilla.org. {web link}

You can sent a report to The FBI via their web site Internet Crime Complaint Center (IC3) {web link}

You can also report such a site at; Google Report Phishing Page {web link} which is the same when done while on site by going to Help > Report Web Forgery

The most used player site is adobe.com. Look for Shockwave Flash.

No, Mozilla doesn't offer any media players. Media players are 3rd party add-ons, usually a Plugin.
