Vista requires permission after application update

FireFox downloaded and installed an update and now every time I start it,
Vista User Control requests permission before it will run. I checked
permissions of the shortcut icon and that has "Run as Administrator"
unchecked as it should. Prior to this update everything ran fine. I also
notice two instances of FireFox (previous and current) in Control Panel
Programs list.
Thanks in advance for any suggestions you can offer.
Doug

Hello Doug,

When Firefox performed the self-update, did it also check for updates for
any installed extensions? Firefox itself should not prompt, so possibly it
is one of the extensions?
