I have tried multiple times to download the new Firefox. It downloads successfully and when the Firefox window appears, it says I need to download the latest version.? I clicked on the Help, About Firefox and it states that I have the latest version 7.0.1 I need to have the latest version to utilize some websites for my iphone

Your UserAgent string in Firefox is probably messed up by another program that you installed. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User_Agent

type about:config in the URL bar and hit Enter
If you see the warning, you can confirm that you want to access that page.
Filter = general.useragent.
Right-click the preferences that are bold, one line at a time, and select Reset.
Then restart Firefox

The download completes, but then nothing happens. I tried restarting, but that doesn't change anything. How do I make it (7.0) install itself
