Hi CarmenMcNamara,
To provide the proper resolution, I would need more information on your side.
1. what anti-virus software do you use?
2. what web browser do you use?
If you use Internet Explore then you can try the methods provided.
This problem may occur if the downloaded file is not enabled in Internet Explorer or if antivirus software is blocking the download.
Method 1:

a. close all Internet Explorer or Windows Explorer Windows that are currently open.
b. Open Internet Explorer by clicking Start, and then click Internet Explorer.
c. click the Tools button, then Internet Options.
d. click on the Security tab , click Internet, and then the custom level button.
e. scroll down to category of downloadsand the download of the file to Activatevalue.
f. click OKand then click Yes.
Now, try to download and check if that helps.
Method 2:

I read through the different post / solutions. I can nopt find the profile on my hard drive file. Until a month or two ago was able to use Firefox on this machine. Now not.
How can I solve this problem?
Attention MAC users: Lion and Maverick hide folders, you need to remove in order to get rid of this error message about the missing profiles folder. Hold down the option key while opening the go menu in the finder. Select the library.
(Yes, it's a little different from the other library folder, you access the 'easy' way). Drag any folder Firefox or Mozilla, you see in the trash. Secure the trash removal. Download the latest Firefox and have him as usual.This parasite is not on Mozilla. This is life after Steve Jobs at Apple. Get used to it.
