My Firefox 6.0.2 is set to update automatically, but continues to say that it is up-to-date when there is a Version 7 now available. What to do?

I am running Firefox v6.0.2. "About Firefox" says that Firefox is up-to-date and on the release update channel. Firefox is set to update automatically. There is now a Firefox Version 7. There is no update awaiting in the download file. Why is it not updating? What action do I take to get the update to take place? Rob

Firefox 7.0 had a bug affecting a number of people so its updates were put on hold temporarily. A version 7.0.1 will be released soon for you to update to.
