Presumably the Mac is using the Beta channel and the Windows machine is on the standard release.

Are you getting any error messages your Windows system, you should be able to upgrade to Firefox 5, if that is specifically what you require. AFAIK 5 is currently on the Beta channel and 4 is the current release with a change to 5 scheduled for for 21st June.
