I've installed the latest version of Firefox, but when I visit YouTube, it still displays the message that I need to update to the latest version, as mine is not supported, even though I have the latest version!

This happened

Every time Firefox opened

== YouTube introduced the changes.

Your user-agent indicates that you have/had the MegaUpload Toolbar installed and that can interfere with your system recording the correct version of Firefox. See: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User_Agent http://kb.mozillazine.org/Problematic_extensions (scroll down to "MegaUpload Toolbar")

To uninstall a toolbar or other extensions or to troubleshoot extensions and themes, see: http://kb.mozillazine.org/Uninstalling_toolbars http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Uninstalling+add-ons#How_to_uninstall_extensions_and_themes http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Troubleshooting+extensions+and+themes

You will also need to reset a preference. Reset general user-agent -type about:config in the URL/address bar and press the Enter key -if you see the warning, accept it (promise to be careful) -Filter = general.useragent.extra.firefox -the item will be bold and show user set -right-click that preference and select Reset -restart Firefox (File > Restart Firefox)
