I get a small box that comes up each time I enter Firefox saying that Firefox 5.0 is vulnerable to phishing and other threats. I am not sure where this message comes from. I have Norton software on the my computer. The box further asks me to update my Firefox to a later version. I check my preferences and I am running Firefox 16.0 the newest version.

I am not sure what to do about this situation.
