Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.9.1) Gecko/20090624 Firefox/3.5

A couple of hours ago, I upgraded my Firefox 3.0.11 to the latest version (Firefox 3.5). Upgrade was successful. But, when I clicked the Firefox icon to surf the internet, a dialog box pops up before launching the internet browser. This happens everytime I click the Firefox icon. The dialog box did not appear in other versions.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Open computer
2. Double click Mozilla Firefox icon to open web browser
3. The dialog box appears

Actual Results:  
After clicking the Mozilla Firefox icon, the dialog box appeared. I clicked the Ok button, then, the web browser was launched.

Expected Results:  
After clicking the Mozilla Firefox icon, it should have immediately launched the web browser displaying the default page.

That's not caused by Firefox, but by Java (Java Quick Start)
