Firefox 3.6.4 is somewhat available.

I saw an update notice for Firefox 3.6.4 on one of the computers today. As always, I let it update. Wen I tried updating Firefox on other computers for some reasons no updates found.

Was Firefox 3.6.4 released and immediately pulled?

Mystery solved! Apparently someone installed Firefox 3.6.4 beta on that particular computer.

Apparently Microsoft still doesn’t like Mozilla Firefox. Microsoft Security Essentials marks Mozila Firefox uninstaller as Trojan.
