    It is an executable file, which has a program that can be executed on the various Microsoft operating systems (Dos,windows 98/xp/vista). This program is not essential to the operation of the system; killing it will simply result in Firefox closing. You may be see in the task manager processes that you have more than one firefox.exe.

    Mozilla Firefox is a free and open source web browser descended from the Mozilla Application Suite and managed by Mozilla Corporation.As this is a program that exists on many Windows systems, it is common for virus writers and spyware vendors to disguise their malware as the genuine one. The issue is the 'secure.exe' module (in program file\security\) that keep continuing to run iexplore.

    If firefox.exe is located in the folder C:\Windows\System32 then it might be considered to be dangerous for your system.If you wish to permanently remove Firefox, you should uninstall it through Add/Remove Programs. There could be several instances of this process running at a given time on a system, up to the number of Firefox windows currently open. The presence of instances exceeding this number may be an indicator of a malware infection.
