was having problems with firefox crashing alot--had auto updates on--checked ver and said was ver3.6 whoa, installed ver7 and ran after install. but after closing and opening again would go back to ver3.6 so uninstalled fire3fox completly even bookmarks and such. then downlaoded and reinstalled ver7, newest, ran fine till i close and reopen then is ver3.6 again. anyone else? do not understand this. no other problems--except originally was crashing on certain sites--especially break.com when i stumbled there, but others as well. why i tried to update.

Your UserAgent string in Firefox is messed up by another program that you installed.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User_Agent

type about:config in the URL bar and hit Enter
If you see the warning, you can confirm that you want to access that page.
Filter = general.useragent.
Right-click the preferences that are bold, one line at a time, and select Reset.
Then restart Firefox
