There have been "false postives" reported for a number of Firefox revision numbers by a number of AV/AS scanners.

Try to download Firefox from here (you may be connected to a mirror site): http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all.html

I checked with Astaro support and found no information confirming "false positives" with Astaro. I have tried several different sites but each fail the Astaro antivirus check.

Is Firefox working our this problem with Astaro? Do we know this is a false positive for sure or just a knee jerk response?

Can anyone give me the answer to my question?

There is a known issue with the Avira AV engine Astaro is using. It fails to extract the archive of Firefox.3.6.6.exe because of an "unsupported header format".

Please tell Avira, that you are not amused.
