There is no major problem other than I am concerned I am not on the latest version. I have downloaded firefox 6.0 (or whatever is the latest version) but when firefox starts there is a message under the start page which says I am not on the latest version. Is there something I am not doing?

Your UserAgent string in Firefox is messed up by another program that you installed.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User_Agent

type about:config in the URL bar and hit Enter
If you see the warning, you can confirm that you want to access that page.
Filter = general.useragent.
Right-click the preferences that are bold, one line at a time, and select Reset.
Then restart Firefox
