I have updated my computer to the 17.0.1 several times and I keep getting the message that I STILL need to update. I am getting sick and tired of doing this and if It will not work then I will delete Firefox all together. After installing the new version I have also restarted my computer each time as well

Hello nanyehi59, your user agent is corrupted by Fast Browser Search (FBSMTWB) and that identifies you as Firefox/3.5.7

see your user agent:

Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.9.1.7) Gecko/20091221 Firefox/3.5.7 (.NET CLR 3.5.30729) FBSMTWB

you must reset user agent, see how to do that : Firefox is showing the wrong User Agent
