Why while opening firefox it tries to download files from my computer?

Question

Every time I open Firefox navigator, I see the download arrow as if it has just downloaded. Today, however, I looked more than usual and found out that there are 6 files from my computer that appear as failed download.
I run my antivirus (free) with no luck.
What can it be?
