My Firefox is working fine, but there is a blue band at the top of the screen that says, "Downloading the latest applications," and it has a swirly, circle thing that indicates something is downloading, but it never stops or goes away. I updated to the latest version of Firefox, but the blue band is still there.

This happened

Every time Firefox opened

== Just the other day. no matter how long the computer runs, it doesn't stop.

I disabled MSN toolbar. That did the trick. Thanks.
