User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.0; en-US; rv:1.7.8) Gecko/20050511 Firefox/1.0.3 StumbleUpon/1.9995

When I click on the link above is says to upgrade to version 1.0.4 which I
already have installed on my machine. This bug is preventing me from getting
extensions.

Reproducible: Always

Actual Results:  
I am directed to;

http://www.mozilla.org/products/firefox/upgrade/?application=firefox

The latest version of FireFox is installed already.

But your user-agent says you have 1.0.3, not 1.0.4
YOU UA string is 1.0.3 -> invalid
(it's the same Version that you see undr help/about)

Summary: Can't get to page → Can't access Mozilla Update due to invalid user-agent
Question from duplicate:
Do you see a pref with general.useragent.override in "about:config" (enter it as
URL) ?
I bet they have because it seems to be that the "StumbleUpon" extension does this.
remove the useragent.override in about:config and it should work.
Changing general.useragent.VendorSub from 1.0.3 StumbleUpon/1.9995 to 1.0.4
fixed problem.
