You can safely click "Later" and forget about it and only after the next restart, Firefox will be updated. This is SO much better than a popup telling you that a new version is out *before* starting the download and then forcing the user to wait through the update, in the mean time forgetting about all the tasks one wanted to do. Whoever came up with this: This is - IMHO - the greatest invention since sliced bread and I'm sure it helps a lot at keeping the transition day small. 'love it! Philip Hi,
