I keep updating Firefox on my Mac OSx 10.6.8 and each time I think that I've updated I click on Firefox and it still says I do not have the updated version. I've rebooted and tried again to no avail. What I'm I doing wrong?

I've gone to the link and downloaded the up to date Firefox. Drag Icon into Applications and then to dock but it still remains a message that I'm not working with the most up to date version

You may see that erroneous update message below the Google search box on www.google.com/firefox which is the old Firefox default home page. It appears that page is no longer being maintained by Google. You appear to have the latest Firefox version.

If you want the Google search page as your home page, change your home page to about:home (a new, updated version of the old Google/Firefox home page is now built-in to Firefox).

I went to the Adobe Site and found a link to the Free Flash Updater. It let me uninstall the Flash Player; then I re-loaded the Free Flash Player and it works just fine.
