your antivirus should still detect any VIRUS downloaded by any browser wether it's IE or FF. but seriously, why do you need an anti-virus for browsing? the thing i worry the most about is getting a FIREWALL and a good spyware/adware detector cleaner. if you tend to get many emails and you worry, then get a software that can scan your email too.
this is what i run and i haven't had a virus since this setup has been on.

adblock plus extension.
