Why is there a later version than I have installed (with automatic update)

I get ScanCircle advice that I am using Mozilla Thunderbird 31.6.0 (x86 en-US) version 31.6.0, but the latest version is 38.0. The same for Mozilla Firefox (x86 en-US) where I am running 37.0.2, but the latest version also here 38.0. My system is set up to update these programs automatically (and I do get updates). Is ScanCircle getting a wrong version (how?) and if not, why am I running an old version?
