Message from FF is incorrect
Continually get the following from the FF help page: Your Firefox is out of date and may contain a security risk! Egads enough to strike terror in the heart of every mortal! and yet just hours earlier I had downloaded and installed the most recent version.
FF you're falling apart. Earlier releases were much more stable.
I've turned off automatic updates. I have little if any trust in new versions and will wait several months after released before installing.

the firegloves extension that you have installed seems to fiddle with this setting: https://github.com/kboda/firegloves/blob/7ee00cdba156e199a858771bea7a98dfa5657674/firegloves-1.2.3-fx/defaults/preferences/defaults.js#L11

hello, are you using any addon to alter your useragent?
Hi,
I need more information to help you with this. Can you do this for me please?
- Type about:support in the address bar.
- At the top of the page, you should see a button that says "Copy text to clipboard". Click it.
- Now, go back to your forum post and click inside the reply box. Press Ctrl+V to paste all the information you copied into the forum post.
Thanks,
Michael
Had to start in safe mode disabling addons because in addition to everything else the new release of FF rebroke gmail. Here's the info you asked for:

I'm getting this message from within Firefox Help. Pretty sad when FF can't diagnose correctly the release I'm on.
this line is likely causing the problem as identifies your browser as firefox 6:
general.useragent.override: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.1; rv:6.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/6.0
again please refer to this article in order to reset the user-agent settings in firefox: How to reset the default user agent on Firefox
It appears your useragent is set to Firefox 6 which would cause the help website to show you this out of date warning. Please try the solution in the article that Phillipp recommended - How to reset the default user agent on Firefox.
Made the change. Went out of FF but when I came back in it was back to the previous value.
When I come back in I have to go into Safe Mode since the recent release rebroke gmail. Don't know if safe mode causes the value to revert.
