@nikraghu : either you downloaded Firefox from a non-official site, and so the file is indeed infected with a virus (which isn't something Mozilla can do anything about).  Make sure to always only download Firefox from the official site: https://www.firefox.com/download/all/desktop-release/ 

Or if you did get it from there, it's a "false positive", and your anti-virus is wrong.  Upload the file you downloaded to https://www.virustotal.com and scan it there.  If it comes back clean, you should report a "false positive" to your anti-virus maker
