I found a solution on the following web page under the heading "Software Update not working properly":

   [http://kb.mozillazine.org/Software_Update] 

Basically the fix involved closing Firefox, going to the "C:\Documents and Settings\<myusername>\Local Settings\Application Data\Mozilla\Firefox\Mozilla Firefox" folder and deleting the "updates" folder as-well-as the "active-update.xml" and "updates.xml" files.

(The location of these files/folder may be different on your computer - check the linked support article above.)
