Build ID: 20160922113459



Actual results:

A new window appeared on my Firefox browser, saying "Urgent Firefox update" and a smaller window saying, "You have chosen to open:  firefox-patch.js  which is JavaScript File (4.6 KB) from: https://keechmindvalleyacademy.org
Would you like to save this file?"


Expected results:

I ignored the request, because I have never heard of keechmindvalleyacademy.org, so I am afraid that it might contain a virus.  But this has happened to me about once a day for the past 3 days.    Should I open the file, or ignore it?
Do not open the file. Use Firefox's "About" entry (in the Help menu) to check for updates.
