I upgraded to the latest version of Firefox but I still get a message on my start page that says "You're not on the latest version of Firefox. Upgrade today to get the best of the Web!"

You may see that message below the Google search box on www.google.com/firefox which is the old Firefox default home page. It appears that page is no longer being maintained by Google. You appear to have the latest Firefox version.

If you want the Google search page as your home page, change your home page to about:home (a new, updated version of the old Google/Firefox home page is now built-in to Firefox).
