I get alert message from FireFox asking for updating software to version 20.xxx
After searching through FF Tools menu to find the software update menu, I found the menu name "Firefox Sync" this is not the software update but what for. Firefox Wiki has the answer.
Firefox Sync, originally branded Mozilla Weave,[2] is a browser synchronization feature that allows users to partially synchronize bookmarks, browsing history, preferences, passwords, filled forms, add-ons and the last 25 opened tabs across multiple computers.[3]
It keeps user data on Mozilla servers, but the data is encrypted in
such a way that no third party, not even Mozilla, can access user
information.[4]
Firefox Sync was originally an add-on[5] for Mozilla Firefox 3.x and SeaMonkey 2.0, but it has been a built-in feature since Firefox 4.0[6] and SeaMonkey 2.1.[7]
Ok, back to the Firefox update issue. you can update your firefox from Help>About Firefox menu , it will check and update your firefox browser automatically.
