HOW DO YOU FIX ISSUES OF WHEN YOU GO TO CERTAIN WEBSITES AND IT COMES UP SAYING YOUR BROWSER NEEDS UPDATED BUT WHEN YOU TRY IT SHOWING YOU ARE UP TO DATE?
I HAVE GONE TO SEVERAL WEBSITES IT IS SHOWING MY BROWSER NEEDS UPDATING. I WENT TO GO CHECK IT SHOWS IT IS UP TO DATE. NEVER HAD THIS PROBLEM WITH THESE SITES. THE SITES ARE FOR MISSING KIDS I TWEET THEM AND SHARE THEM ON MY FACEBOOK. (CAPS BROKEN SORRY)

. Whenever you get a message / popup that software / files need to be updated;
DO NOT USE ANY OF THE PROVIDED LINKS
While this may be a legitimate message, it could also be Malware or a Virus. Any time you want or need to check for upgrades, go to the web site of the True Owner of the program in question. For example, to check out Firefox, go to Mozilla.org. {web link}
You can also report such a site at; Google Report Phishing Page {web link} which is the same when done while on site by going to Help > Report Web Forgery
Help us safeguard Mozilla’s trademarks by reporting misuse {web link}
