I have Firefox 12 on my Windows XP Service Pack 3 system, but some websites, like Gmail, state that I'm using an old browswer and need to update. Help?

Deleted Firefox 11, cleared cache, installed Firefox 12. When I go to the "About Firefox" tab, it says that I have FF 12 and that no updates are needed.

Computer: Windows XP 2002 Professional, service pack 3

Problem: Many websites, including this one, don't see FF 12. Somehow it thinks I'm running FF 3.0 and won't acknowledge the updates. It says I'm running an insecure version and the websites won't work (I'm typing now in IE because I can't submit this form in FF)

see : Websites incorrectly report that Firefox is outdated or incompatible

find and try : To reset your user agent (you can see analytical info) in "Other causes" in the above link.
