Your Firefox is reporting that you run Firefox 3.0.11 on MacOS X 10.5. This article has the steps for how to fix that: How to reset the default user agent on Firefox. Does that help?

And then, of course, you'll want to get on to the current version. I suggest making a backup of your personal settings folder first, in case something goes wrong with all the automated conversions that will be needed (if you are really still running Firefox 3). This article has tips on that: Back up and restore information in Firefox profiles.

Any luck?
