Downloaded v9.0.1, stillsaying I have not got latest, and the typing block not there, so cannot type web page

more options

I have downloaded the latest version of Firefox. 9.0.1 but the page is still saying that I do not have the latest version, download now. So I have gone down that route and got the same version. Also, there is a fault on the page as the Google type-in box in no longer there so I have to use a separate tool bar to access the net pages I require.

You may see that message below the Google search box on www.google.com/firefox which is the old Firefox default home page. It appears that page is no longer being maintained by Google. You appear to have the latest Firefox version.

If you want the Google search page as your home page, change your home page to about:home (a new, updated version of the old Google/Firefox home page is now built-in to Firefox).
