I'm using windows 7 on my hp laptop. When I try updating i get a message saying I need to have at least windows XP. Is there something else blocking my update? I've tried both updating an downloading the latest version. My current firefox is 13.0.1

hi, please right-click the firefox icon on the desktop, go to properties > compatibility and make sure that firefox isn't set to run in compatibility mode (atm your useragent reports that you are running windows 2000). afterwards it should be possible to update.

since your profile also show signs of unwanted software on your system, please run a full scan of your system with different security tools like the free version of malwarebytes & adwcleaner, which are specialised in adware and browser hijackers. Troubleshoot Firefox issues caused by malware
