When you skip an update, as you did by missing the 3.6.11 update, Mozilla downloads the entire Firefox package which isn't compressed. You end up downloading ~10.4Mb instead of a ~2.4Mb update, or a full, compressed Firefox_setup package that's ~7.7Mb. Not a big deal if you have a hi-speed connection (about a minute or so to download ~10.4Mb), but it sounds like you are on dial-up connection. Unfortunately for you, the 3.6.12 version was released just a few days after 3.6.11 was released due to a security fix that wasn't known of at the time Mozilla decided to release 3.6.11 - very rare for a series of releases to occur that quickly, but it is reassuring that Mozilla can respond with a security fix in like 48 hours from notification of the problem to releasing the patched version to their users.
My advice is to download the installer (Firefox_setup) and install it over your current 3.6.10 version. http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/
