Is Firefox sending an automatic message that says Firefox 28.0.0.5186 is ready for download or do I have a bug?

About twice a week, I get a message box at the bottom of my monitor that says: Firefox needs updating. firefox 28.0.0.5186 is ready for download.

However, my computer is set for automatic firefox downloads and this message reappears even if I attempt the update.

Is this from firefox or do I have a bug in my computer?
