I was sent a alert from secunia software inspector stating for me to scan my computer for a catagory 4 threat on mozilla firefox. I scanned it to update the patch, and rescaned it but did not update. I was advised to bring my problem to this forum Is there anyone who has a solution to this problem? |

I just had the same update request but the newest version is 3.5.7 and that's what I have on my machine. Why won't the alert go away? | ||||||||

Using PSI (in advanced mode) will give you information as to what OSI is detecting as the "out of date" Firefox . Having version 3.5.7 installed , old files may be around somewhere . You can find the PSI download by using the "Vulnerability Scanning" link at the top of this page. -- It always seems impossible until its done. Nelson Mandela |

@philip.maxfield These are some tips on using PSI :- As a new member of the forum , to help resolve your problem , here are some instructions to help you first of all get the best out of PSI :- 1)use PSI in "advanced" mode ; 2)in the "settings" tab make sure that the box in the first/upper section is NOT ticked in order to have the maximum info available ; 3)tell us in which "tab(s)" your problem programme is located ; 4)in that tab , click on the + in the box at the left end of the programme , the page will expand ; 5)in the expanded page , tell us what is written in the "installation path" ; 6)in the "toolbox" section , lower down , the link "technical details" should confirm the installation path details ; 7)click on the link "open folder" and you will see more details concerning the location of the "problem" . Posting these details will help the Forum help you , if/when you have a problem . Let us know how you get on Take care Anthony -- It always seems impossible until its done. Nelson Mandela |
