Many programs claim I don't have the latest version (will not run until I update) even though I have automatic updating and also check and see it is the latest.

Every once in a while I am told by a site I visit that it can't run since my firefox version is too old and tells me to update. Today it happened to me on the web site https://web.whatsapp.com/ I have automatic updates set and also checked and have the latest version installed. Why do these websites get this wrong indication of the version?
