I originally had Firefox 3.5 and was invited to download beta 4 which I have. Then an update to a higher level of beta 4 came in and I downloaded that. Now you folks are introducing 5.0 and I have downloaded it twice, but it doesn't seem to be either downloading or have any results when I attempt to check what version is currently running in the properties of this site on my laptop.... I'm using windows 7 home premium version...

You are showing Fx5. The Desktop icon doesn't change in my experience. There has never been a 4.12 version.

To check version Help>About Firefox, or

Help>Troubleshooting Information, or

Options>Advanced>Update>Check update history(little box at the bottom).

My terminology was incorrect, what I have in my downloads is 4.0 Beta 12. Like I said previously, I have no indication of a 5.0 Beta, even though I have been prompted to download this and have so twice....
