My FireFox for Win 8.1 has been updating for 2.5 HOURS. Why is it taking so long.?

After my win 8.1 laptop came out of sleep mode, Fire Fox told me it was running (where and how I do not know) and I could not access it unless I restarted. I shut down and restarted. FireFox asked me to "update" firefox. It has been updating for 3 HOURS. What is going on???
