Got screen saying "UrgentFoxfire Update-URL is feehacitysocializing.net-is it OK?
This has happened several times in the past month. I have avoided using the site. there have been different URLs. Is this legit or a scam? If it is a scam, how do I screen them out? I have Malware & Microsoft Security. Please answer me.

No.
If you get a pop-up message asking to update Firefox or plugins or scanning for malware then such a message is likely a scam and you should never respond to such an alert to avoid getting infected with malware.
- Only update Firefox via "Help > About" or by downloading and installing Firefox from the Mozilla server and never via a pop-up or link on a web page.
- plugins should only be updated via the plugin itself or by visiting the home page of the plugin.
You can find the full version of the current Firefox release (47.0.1) in all languages and all operating systems here:
