Site saying I do not have up to date version of Firefox, when I do?

more options

Hi, so, my firefox is entirely up to date. Version 7.0.1. is downloaded and running. However, google+, firefox's homepage, and a few other sites or programs are saying I do NOT have the up to date version. I took a screen shot of it saying this and with the help -> about firefox open, showing I have the up to date version. What is going on and how do I fix this? I have uninstalled and reinstalled several times. Help.

Does not relate to your question, but...

You have multiple old Java Console extensions that Java did not clean-up during updates. You need Java Console only if you do Java programming/development or debug Java applets on web pages. You can see them in Add-ons > Extensions, but you can not remove them from there. Removing them will not affect the functioning of Java on websites. You can manually remove them, if you do not do Java development work to avoid future, possible problems/conflicts:

Your old Java Console extensions:

  • Java Console 6.0.13 {CAFEEFAC-0016-0000-0013-ABCDEFFEDCBA}
  • Java Console 6.0.14 {CAFEEFAC-0016-0000-0014-ABCDEFFEDCBA}
  • Java Console 6.0.15 {CAFEEFAC-0016-0000-0015-ABCDEFFEDCBA}
  • Java Console 6.0.18 {CAFEEFAC-0016-0000-0018-ABCDEFFEDCBA}
  • Java Console 6.0.20 {CAFEEFAC-0016-0000-0020-ABCDEFFEDCBA}
  • Java Console 6.0.22 {CAFEEFAC-0016-0000-0022-ABCDEFFEDCBA}
  • Java Console 6.0.24 {CAFEEFAC-0016-0000-0024-ABCDEFFEDCBA}
