Firefox keeps upgrading me to 3.6 when I open it and for some reason then reverts to 3.5. This happens frequently, on both my home and work computer. What's up?

Firefox automatically upgrades me to 3.6 but form some reason the next time I start up it reverts to 3.5. Consequently, it takes forever to load each time and it is getting very irritating. Don't make me go back to IE!

This happened

Every time Firefox opened

== Since the upgrade began being pushed out.

Hello Sandi.

Just to be clear, the browser you were using when you posted that was 3.6.6.

This "automatic downgrade" may happen if your computer is set to restore your Program Files folders to their previous stat when you reboot your computer. Please contact your system administrator and ask him about that, or see if you don't have any software of this sort, if you don't have a sys admin.
