while in yahoo where I enter bookmarks to listen to KYW news radio a saved bookmark on foxfire, I keep getting a repeat download message box asking me to download to the newer version, I have done this already, and I went to check my programs and thee is only one foxfire icon, when I check in foxfire help file to check to see if I am current in my new version download it says I am ok. but soon after surfing the net the box appears again asking me to download to the newer version. I am in a catch 22 world.
