Every few days I get a pop up that I have registry errors. It looks like it comes from firefox but I don't trust it. Today it showed up in the form of a page, not a pop up - It has the logo and says mozilla or firefox on the bar - but I've never had this happen before and am very leary of it.

Where it says Mozilla or Firefox, that is the top of the menu bar that indicates which page you are at. As for the popup, can you attach a screenshot?
