When clicking on the "Get more extensions", It sends me to the mozilla webpage
http://www.mozilla.org/products/firefox/upgrade/?application=%7bec8030f7-c20a-464f-9b0e-13a3a9e97384%7d"
 Which tells me to upgrade to the most recent version of Firefox 1.0.4.  It is
already upgraded to that version though.  I tried re-installing it and I am
still encountering that problem.  

Thanks for the amazing web browser.  You guys are doing an awesome job at
creating something which requires tons of work.  My college has it on all of
their Lab computers, because they feel it is safer, I convinced people in my
dorm to get Firefox, and so far no problems at all.  Thanks again!

Reproducible: Always

I am experiencing the same problem.

I am redirected to your update site and I cannot access mozilla extensions and
themes because my browser version 1.0.4 is not recognized.

You need to follow the instructions at bug 294020 comment 5 , 6, and 7 to solve
the problem. It is caused by the StumbleUpon extension, which rewrites your user
agent string.
