Everytime I open Firefox, along with my home page, I get a tab asking me to update the Firefox version I've got and it is driving me nuts. I CANT update as I am on a work PC and don't have admin privileges or passwords that let me do this. I like using Firefox but will cease to if I cant stop this happening.

Are you using the default Firefox 3.6 Homepage - http://www.google.com/firefox ? That page was hard coded by Google to say Update today after Mozilla stopped using that webpage as the default Homepage in Firefox 4 and later versions.
If so, set any other webpage as your Homepage in that old version.

As far as the plugincheck page, I don't have any ideas.
