This is a known issue with the antivirus program -- it finds things in the
browser cache and mail files (the latter even if the mail was deleted but the
folder hasn't been compacted yet).

As comment 2 stated, it is in the cache. It is not Mozilla's fault if you have
it downloaded yourself. Delete the cache to get rid of it.
