In the lower right hand corner of the screen, how do I stop the download window from poping up each time I download something?

In the lower right hand corner of my screen, everytime I download, a download window pops up, that scans what I downloaded for a virus then gives me a message that says download is complete. How do I disable that feature?.

To turn off the alert you can change a hidden preference.
# Type '''about:config''' into the location bar and press enter
# Accept the warning message that appears, you will be taken to a list of preferences
# Locate the preference '''browser.download.manager.showAlertOnComplete''' and double-click on it to change its value to '''false'''
# If you want to stop Firefox requesting a virus scan, double click on the preference '''browser.download.manager.scanWhenDone''' to change its value to '''false'''
