EVERY TIME I open FireFox I get this message:

"FireFox" is an application downloaded from the internet. Are you sure you want to open it?

Cancel Open

How do I stop this from happening on my new Macbook Pro.

I am not a Mac user myself, but wonder if the Firefox application was installed correctly. The problem seems a similar one to this one:

As posted above, make sure that Firefox gets installed properly.

Open the Firefox disk image (DMG) file and drag the Firefox program to the application folder on your hard drive.
You shouldn't double-click the Firefox application to run it from the disk image, but drag it out of the DMG folder instead.
