Arrghh! It's Monday morning and Firefox is back to V3.6.26. It wants

me

to update to V3.6.27. Duh, I was at V10.x when I went home Friday. The
3.6.26 version says "en-GB" which I assume is British English and the
3.6.27 version it's recommending is "en-US" which I assume if American
English.

I had completely uninstalled FF, renamed the folder where it was

installed,

and installed from scratch. I guess I'll have to visit their forums and
see if there's a tool to remove all registry entries as well.

Another weird thing. I don't leave a lot of icons on my desktop,

mostly I

put icons into one of two folders on my desktop: Daily and Non-Daily
(there are exceptions, but in general that's what I do). Each time FF

has

reverted back to an old version, the FF icon _and_ the FileZilla Client
icon are back on my desktop. I don't know why that didn't register in

my

brain any sooner. The names Mozilla and FileZilla are close enough to

be

creepy to me.

UPDATE

There were 7 Windows updates applied this morning and I just rebooted.

Firefox now says it's v3.6.26. I'm scanning for multiple firefox.exe
files as we 'speak'.

Assuming there's only one found, I think I'll uninstall/reinstall

Firefox

from scratch. I already exported my bookmarks so I can get them back.

Jeff - With early release, IIRC you could install FF to different
directories/it would install new versions to different directories.

Is it

possible you have both 3.x and 10.x installed but your shortcuts are
getting messed up? How about scanning your PC for firefox.exe to see

if

there is more than one?

LONG time and have never seen what you are experiencing. Might try
posting to their help/support forums?

Subject: [PCTECH] Firefox reverts to older version

All,

When I came in this morning, Firefox had gone back to version 3.xx

from

version 10.0.2. This is the 3rd time in 3 weeks this has happened.
Googling 'firefox goes back to older version' or 'firefox reverts to
older
version' doesn't come up with anything to do with this issue. All I

get

are users asking how to go back to an earlier version.

Is this happening to anyone else? Win XP.

Thanks.
