I do.

And I have seen this window pop up from time to time. My take is that it's not Firefox doing this. I believe it is an ad at best, and dangerous at any rate. I don't think FF would go about updates in this manner. I get them at about the same rate as before I updated a few weeks ago.

They come up seemingly at random, but, I think I notice them more from Yahoo news articles that redirect to another site.

Sometimes they are accompanied by a new tab opening. I just close that tab.

I just click the little 'x' and go about my bidness, no need for opening a bookmarked page, though.
