I want to download Firefox and get rid of Internet Explorer. It goes through a couple run screens until I get an Internet Explorer warning screen that says that file Firefox%20setup%204.0.1.exe is from an unsafe source (even though my Norton says it's trusted). I click run anyway and then Internet Explorer stops the download saying that the file is corrupt. I've tried downloading it a couple times and get the same result. Please help!

Try saving the Firefox_Setup file, instead of trying to "Run" it. Then double-click it to start the installation procedure.

Unfortunately, that didn't work. I was able to save it to my desktop, but when I double clicked it, I got the message that the file is corrupt.
