During landing rollout; we got a level 3 indication of an engine fire in the Number 3 Engine. We cleared the runway; ran appropriate checklist and secured the engine firing the fire bottle. We did not declare an emergency. We requested CFR assistance and CFR did not show any evidence of a fire on the Number 3 Engine. We shut the remaining engines down and had maintenance tow us in. CAT 2 approach with half mile visibility; blowing snow; RVR 3;000 FT. Snow ingesting in the Number 3 Engine during rollout could have caused an anomaly for the engine fire indication.
