As a further update:
There are 3 files _desktop.ini files in the archive:
1 is in the top level XPI file 2 are in the JAR archive
All 3 are infected with the virus named above according to VirusScan. Manually deleting these files from the archives allows for a successful install without any virus being detected during or after the install.
