I downloaded the new version of firefox twice still keep still getting the message that my version is obsolete and unprotected
I have followed the instructions to download twice, said that my download is complete, but still seem to have the old version with the message to download the new version, so I'm going in circles
Your user agent string (identifies the version of the browser) reports that you have Firefox 3.5.19 and not 4.0.1
A quick look to confirm which version you have, if the bookmarks menu has an object called "organize bookmarks" you use Firefox 3.5.19, if it has one element called "show all bookmarks" you Firefox 4
If you have Firefox 4, you must reset your user agent string so that it correctly identifies the version of Firefox.
- Type of topic: config in the address bar and press on enter
- Accept the warning message that appears, you will be taken to a list of preferences
- Locate the general.useragent.overridepreference, right-click on it and select Reset, this function will set the default user agent string in Firefox 4
There are other user agent string settings that may have changed, but these are no longer used in Firefox 4. You can reset them if you want, for details, see https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Websites+or+add-ons+incorrectly+report+incompatible+browser
If you have Firefox 3.5.19, you can use the integrated update system. In using the menu, select "Check for Updates" and it should offer to install Firefox 4.0.1

Ignore the message, change the homepage of topic: Home, replace it with another page or leave blank.

I have a macbook pro: 2.3 GHz Intel Core i5, 4 GB of 1333 MHz DDR3 Ram. 10.7.5 version. When I open some websites, I get a message that web browser is obsolete. I use safari. When I do a software update, it says that the software is up-to-date. Help, please.
Safari maxes in a version of Mac OS x. New version of Mac OS x would be needed for the new version of Safari.
Firefox is not limited within an OSX and probably has a version that works. Chrome may as well but is a Devourer of resources. Opera is a third option.

On startup, I get a message that windows is not genuine. I've repeatedly tried to activate with the product key on the label of MS on the back of the computer laptop, but message still there. I noticed the first time I tried to enter the product key, there was a different product key in the input fields.

3 do you have Norton installed on the computer security software?
If you use Norton Security software on the computer then refer to the article below and check if it helps.
http://Service1.Symantec.com/support/sharedtech.nsf/pfdocs/2005113009323013
If you don't use security software Norton then temporary deactivation of security software installed on the computer and check if it helps.
Important: Antivirus software can help protect your computer against viruses and other security threats. In most cases, you should not disable your antivirus software. If you do not disable temporarily to install other software, you must reactivate as soon as you are finished. If you are connected to the Internet or a network during the time that your antivirus software is disabled, your computer is vulnerable to attacks.

When you log on a Windows Vista-based or a Windows 7 computer by using a temporary profile, you receive the following error message:
The user profile Service has not logon. User profile cannot be loaded.http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/947215#letmefixit
Your user profile was not loaded correctly! You have been logged on with a temporary profile.
http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/947242
If you tried to log on to Windows and received an error message telling you that your user profile is damaged, you can try to fix it. You will need to create a new profile and then copy the files from the existing to the new profile. You must have at least three user accounts on the computer to perform these operations, including the new account that you created.

I got the message to update my browser, I went on the site and download the latest version of Firefox. I update my plug-ins as well. However, I always get the message that my browser is obsolete. I uninstalled it, reinstalled, without success. Please help me. When I go to help and select about Firefox, I have that I use the latest version: 6.0.2.
Check general.useragent preferences on the topic: config page.
You can open the topic: config page through the address bar just like you open a Web site.Filter: general.useragent
If all general.useragent prefs are "BOLD" (user set) then right-click this pref and select reset.
It would be probably due the FBSMTWB on the end of your useragent that you had added the Fast Browser Search toolbar extension.
