I tried to upgrade Firefox and now I keep getting this box when I try to start Firefox that says "Your computer must be restarted to complete a previous upgrade of Firefox. Do you want to reboot now?" I click yes and the computer reboots but I get the same message when I try to start Firefox. It will not let me remove Firefox either. Ineed help getting this working again. Please!

Hi,

Please try deleting the updates.xml file and the updates folder in the Firefox installation directory, if present.
