Hi,
Something you installed has changed your browser user agent to report an old version.
You'll need to reset this as described here: How to reset the default user agent on Firefox
- In the Location bar, type about:config and press Enter.
- The about:config "This might void your warranty!" warning page may appear. Click I'll be careful, I promise!, to continue to the about:config page.
- Search for useragent by typing it into the Filter field.
- Right-click on each of the three preferences listed below and select Reset from the context menu.
general.useragent.extra.firefox general.useragent.locale general.useragent.security
- If they exist, you may also need to reset:
general.useragent.extra.productName - where productName can be the name of some third party software (e.g. microsoftdotnet). general.useragent.override
You have an item installed that is considered malware/spyware/adware, "My Web Search Plugin Stub".
- You can check if you have any of these from Web Products" installed:
- Control Panel > Add or Remove Programs, click on any that you find and click "Remove": Ask.com Bar,My Search Bar,MyWay Speed Bar,My Web Search Bar,Fun Web Products Easy Installer
- See:
- You MAY need to change a preference to reset your default URL/location bar search provider:
- Enter about:config in the address/URL bar and press the Enter key
- If you see a warning, accept it (Promise that you will be careful)
- Filter = keyword.URL
- Below the Filter, if keyword.URL is bold, right-click on keyword.URL and choose "Reset"
- Restart Firefox (File > Restart Firefox)
- You MAY need to reset your homepage. Firefox can open multiple home pages. Home pages are separated by the "|" symbol.
