Several sites (financial) tell me my browser is out of date. But I am up to date.

Sites I have always accessed through FF now tell me I cannot log in due to out of date browser. My FF is version 78. Still I cannot log in. I have spoke to their support and they tell me they will work with FF versions 56 and higher. So I am forced to use an alternate browser to continue. Is there a problem with FF the support for the sites I need to use say there is.

A common reason is because the useragent the browser is showing to website is different from its default useragent for some reason.

It does appear you posted Firefox 78.0 as per your More System Details on right.
