Hi Expert,

My home PC is run on Win XP and has a Firefox 3.6 browser along with other browsers. Whenever, an update is automatically downloaded, I get a message that 3.6.x is available but you're not authorised to install. I'm not connected to any network nor have any proxy settings. This happens even when I try to install the download afresh after logging in as administrator. My user rights and other restrictions remain as 'Not Configured'. This does not happens for other installations or browsers.

Please help.
