Had some difficulty updating to 4.0. In the process popped up on my desktop were multiple icons and update buttons. How do I confirm I have succeeded in installing 4.0? Firefox continues to remind me to update to 4.0? Can't Firefox "see" I have updated to 4.0 or is that reminder for someone else

Go to Help | About Firefox. It will show in there which version your have installed which appears to be 4.0.1

You can disable the reminders by clicking the Firefox button, go to Options | Options | Advanced and in the Update tab, uncheck Firefox at the top.

This means you'll have to check manually from time to time whether any new releases have become available.

Firefox 5.0 will be released on June 21.
