Remember that RPM is also the extention Real Player uses.
It could be that Mozilla thinks it's an audio file and then finds that
it is not the kind of rpm it expects.
try downloading it only and then installing the file with rpm like:
rpm -ivh lilypond-2.4.5-1.rhfc1.ccrma.rpm
Also mind that you have to take care about where you get your
files from. Make sure the source is trusted.
Hope this helps a bit.

What should I do?
Are you sure it is the true rpm-file you have downloadet? Sometimes
Mozilla gets an errormessage and puts it into the downloaded filename
especially when there is a link-chain before you get the actual
archive or RPM-file.
So please check the length of the file. Maybe look inside the
first part of the file with hexdump? Check the file with the
"file" commandline command?
Ok - if you don't know how to use the commandline, look at the
file properties and return with the length (and checksum) of the
file.
If you are not using Fedora Core 1, then choose another download-RPM.
If you have the newest KDE, you can click and open RPM's with Kpackage.
Good luck!
