I get a popup box asking to upgrade to ver 33.0 What is current ver?

running WXP, FireFox 32.0.3, everything seems to be fine. Sometimes a applet opens asking to update/upgrade to Ver 33.0.0. I suspect this is a hack, and never commit but close. When I open the Help About box it says I'm up to date with 32.0.3.
Is this the latest version? Is the popup a trap? If so should we not have a fix?
Thanx Carl

Don't trust the pop-up, trust your Help > About box.
Did you get that pop-up after visiting a specific site, or did you always see it no matter where you go? If you are seeing it everywhere, you may want to scan using free anti-malware tools. Try tools such as:
* [http://www.malwarebytes.org/products/malwarebytes_free/ MalwareBytes' Anti-Malware]
* [http://general-changelog-team.fr/en/downloads/viewdownload/20-outils-de-xplode/2-adwcleaner AdwCleaner] (for more info, see this [http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/download/adwcleaner/ alternate AdwCleaner download page])
* See [[Troubleshoot Firefox issues caused by malware]] for more information
You can also try add-ons such as [https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/adblock-plus/ Adblock Plus], and check your pop-up settings. Please see [[Pop-up blocker settings, exceptions and troubleshooting]] for more information.
