Each new window there is a reminder "you're not on the latest version of FF". Check under help menu "about ff" and it states I am - using 9.0.1 ? Is updater wrong?

You may see that erroneous update message below the Google search box on www.google.com/firefox which is the old Firefox default home page. It appears that page is no longer being maintained by Google. You appear to have the latest Firefox version.

If you want the Google search page as your home page, change your home page to about:home (a new, updated version of the old Google/Firefox home page is now built-in to Firefox).

Thanks for the solution. It worked and also thanks for the video setup reference. That is a good idea - being able to have multiple home pages pop up.
