Using IE, I did a Bing search on "get firefox". Top result lists "http://www.mozilla.com/firefox/", which looks legit, so I click on it. That link forwards to "http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/". Click on the "Firefox 3.6 Free Download" box, which again all looks legit, and then Trend Micro spawns to warning windows: 1) (IE helper window) The URL that you are attempting to access is a potential security risk. Trend Micro OfficeScan has blocked this URL in keeping with network security policy.

URL: http://mozilla.cdn.leaseweb.com/firefox/releases/3.6.13/win32/en-US/Firefox%20Setup%203.6.13.exe

Risk Level: Risk level cannot be displayed because active scripting is disabled. High Medium Low
