Issue
I have another kind of problem with Firefox
Description
Although I have the latest version(3.6.7) and update regularly, on addons.mozilla.com the version i have seems 3.0.8 and i can't install most of the extensions. It says "Not available for Firefox 3.0.8;MEGAUPLOAD"
I checked Help-About and weirdly there are two versions on the page!

The megaupload toolbar changed your useragent. To change it back so that it shows 3.6.7, type about:config into the location bar. You will get a warning message, accept the warning. This will bring up a list of settings, in the filter box type useragent, this will bring up a small number of settings. Right-click on each of them and choose Reset. (Reset is only available for any setting that has been modified). This should solve your problem.
