The pop-up box, "Software Update; Downloading Firefox; Connecting to the update server...", has appeared for the past three days, at different times. There is a progress bar within it that is scrolling, repeatedly, not ending. This pop-up box only has a "Hide" button. How long must this pop-up box be active? Once prior today I did click the "Hide" button, but the pop-up box reappeared. Please give me some feed back.

See:

Do a clean (re-)install instead:

  • Uninstall your current Firefox version and remove the Firefox program folder before installing that copy of the Firefox installer.
  • Do not remove personal data if you uninstall the current version.
  • It is important to delete the Firefox program folder to remove all the files and make sure that there are no problems with files that were leftover after uninstalling.

Your bookmarks and other profile data are stored elsewhere (not in the Firefox program folder) and won't be affected by a reinstall, but make sure that you do not select to remove personal data if you uninstall Firefox.
