sorry, I confused you

Not confused. Reset internet explorer to default and see if you are able to download and run the tools.

Does this happen on certain web site(s)?
Have you set Firefox to check and make sure it is the default Browser?
Are you using the latest version of Firefox?
Could you post a screen shot?
Have you reset [COLOR=rgb(255, 128, 0)]Firefox?

If you reset it. It may ask to be default browser. Just decline the offer. It may resolve the issues you speak of.

Even if the reset makes IE the default again just open Firefox and it will ask if you want it to be the default browser.

Would be a good idea to run the check that @Malnutrition is asking for to make sure there is nothing lurking in the background that can and or may cause this to happen again.
