By default, the firefox that comes from SL (or RHEL) does not check to see if it is the latest firefox. When you switched to the latest firefox, it must have overwritten those preferenced in your home firefox setting. Your home area firefox settings take precidence over the general firefox settings. So when you switched back to FF 3.6.4, it now saw that it was supposed to check to see if it was the latest version, and so ... checked. > When running _only_ FF 3.6.4 I got no such messages. > > BTW.

Please ask your question about sylpheed on their mailling list.
