Why is the browser updating every time it starts?

This is not a gripe about frequent updates, nor a case of being redirected to the "browser updated" page every time I start Firefox.

What is happening is that every time I open Firefox, I get a message from Windows asking for permission to let Firefox perform an update, then after I click "Yes" a window with a loading bar that says "Firefox is installing your updates, this may take a few moments..." or something similar to that comes up, and then the browser opens when it is done updating.

This happens literally every time I start Firefox, even if I close it and immediately start it again. This has been happening for several days now, and refreshing Firefox has not helped.

Help?

Can you go to www.getfirefox.com, download the latest version, install it, and then let me know if you still have this issue?

Yeah, that seems to have done it. Guess I should have tried that in the first place, I was just worried because that behavior seemed virus-like and I was wondering if there were any known threats along those lines. Thanks, Tyler!
