v.3.6 released January 21st, 2010
http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/3.6/releasenotes/

Forgive me if I expect that 'automatically check for updates'
would notify me of ALL updates, not just minor updates to
'major' releases...

Isn't that what 'Automatically check for updates' means ?

You need to get a life. It was a security update according to Firefox
when you check for updates. If you don't like my post, don't read it.

I discovered that there is a problem when you run TBird as a Standard
User in Win 7. Not only does it not notify of updates, it doesn't allow
you to update either.
You have to start TBird with the "Run as Admin" function in order to a)
see if there ARE any updates and then b) to actually APPLY those updates.
At least, that's what happened here.
