nearly every day I will recieve notice that there are updates available for
firefox or my extentions when I click to download them the dialog box comes up
and says they are being downloaded and installed but it just hangs and never
downloads or installs them.  (that's why I get the message nearly every day when
it checks for updates) I've only had this problem with the last 2 versions of
firefox the previous ones would update fine.  I have the same router and I don't
use a firewall.  I also don't recieve an error message the download just hangs. 

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Start Firefox
2.wait a few moments for the "updates are avaliable" dialog box
3.click the update now button
4.watch the "updates are now being downladed and installed" box do nothing.

Actual Results:  
absolutly nothing

Expected Results:  
downloaded the updates

I use the "Noia 2.0 extreme" theme. 
buildconfig.h

Possibly the StumbleUpon extension causes the trouble. Type about:config in
location bar(address bar) and filter for general.useragent.vendorSub and
reset/modify it to 1.0.6

1.0.6 StumbleUpon/1.9995 is what it's set at
