Is it Firefox that is blocking you from downloading the files or is it Windows that is preventing you from opening them?

Firefox downloads them but it marks them as blocked, so windows won't open them.

Please try the following:

  1. Go to about:config in Firefox
  2. Locate the browser.download.manager.scanWhenDone
  3. Change the value of this setting from true to false

Does this solve the issue?
