Whenever I start Firefox it tells me:

"Stop! Whatever you were going to do, it couldn't possibly be more important than checking if fart-button-xpi has been updated from 1.0.4 to 1.0.5! Now just five more clicks and I'll restart"



You must be running Firefox 3.6 then.


But that's exactly the point -- just manually update to firefox 4 and your problems will go away! Firefox 4 is only a few months old. Compared to previous firefox releases it's brand-new.


Define "manually update".


Having to complete something like this: http://www.newsmild.com/wp-content/uploads/upgrade-offer-boo...

Unfortunately, I think years of popup dialog fatigue leads lots of people to just close the window.
