How do you download Firefox on a laptop Windows 8? Never RUN the dialog box.

I have a problem with everything I try to download. After that I click on download, I don't me the dialog box RUN. The computer shows it has downloaded the file, asks if I want to open or save, but does not execute the executable file no matter what I try. I disabled the pop-up blocker, I'm in the administrator account, I don't know what else to try. I searched google for answers and contacted a couple of software support sites, but have not taken place in all of the answer. The last of them suggested that I use Firefox, but I can't download it either.

I solved my problem by disabling (uncheck) "Enable Protected Mode".
In Microsoft Explorer / Tools / Internet Options / Security (tab)
Then restart the Explorer and start your download.
Once I finally got Firefox downloaded, it worked fine, and I left the using Explorer.
