IE being naughty?

Post by agibsonsw »

Hello.
Internet Explorer doesn't seem to want to download Firefox.. I told it to run anyway but it suggested the file was corrupted..?

This has happened to me with other very new software, apparently there's not enough information about it in the SmartScreen database. On my previous PC, Norton Antivirus also displayed such warnings from time to time.

(Or perhaps it is a stupid joke from Microsoft: Firefox might harm your computer... :grin:)
Best wishes,
