You just can't seem to come to grips with the fact that this is a
Windows 7 ng, can you?
Or is it that fact that pisses you off so much?
Live with it *SPORT*!

Good info:

Firefox fixed quite a few things that were not working properly.

Don't criticize info regarding security updates as XP users use
Mozilla products as well as those exceedingly wonderful
Microsoft ones.

That's all fine and dandy, but that's an update to a new version
of Firefox, not a security update to an existing FF.

Also, I have all three boxes checked for 'Automatically Check
for Updates', with 'Ask me what I want to do checked', and the
last time I saw that updates were available was a week or two
ago, I think.

However, if I go to Help -> Check for Updates, I am told "A
security and stability update for Firefox is available: Firefox
v3.5.11" as I'm currently using 3.5.5.

Guess what....I didn't know there were any updates ready, so he
wasn't telling me things I already knew.
