I have downloaded and installed version 4 from previous version 3.6.2. When I start Firefox I get a Firefox updated tab that says I am running version 3.6.2 and we recommend downloading the latest and greatest version.Yet I am in fact running version 4. I have even uninstalled and re downloaded and re installed version 4 but this does not go away. Any idea why? or what to do to stop this from happening? I have been just closing the tab and everything runs fine but I am wanting to solve this issue as it is getting kind of annoying.
