This is displayed on the home page under the Firefox start banner.: URGENT! Your version of Firefox is no longer protected against online attacks. Get the upgrade - it’s fast and free!

Browsing still works and I have not seen any other problems, but this is very annoying.

Any ideas on how to fix it?

Your UserAgent string in Firefox is messed up by another program that you installed - MEGAUPLOAD - is comes thru as Firefox 3.0.4. 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.extra.firefox
Right-click that preference and select Reset
Then restart Firefox
