Are you sure that was a real Firefox notice?
For the last six months, an epidemic of Fake Update Notices have been popping up all over the place. https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/i-found-fake-firefox-update
You may have ad / mal-ware. Further information can be found in the Troubleshoot Firefox issues caused by malware article.
Run most or all of the listed malware scanners. Each works differently. If one program misses something, another may pick it up.

This was Not from Mozilla or the Firefox web browser.
Mozilla does not host anything for Firefox outside of *.mozilla.org
The extension in Addons manager is say SafeSearch Incognito 0.1.8 true @safesearchincognito and you can remove it.
Please check whether their program shows up in the Windows control panel, as described on their "Uninstall" page: http://searchincognito.online/uninstall
FredMcD, this was not about a Firefox update fake or otherwise.
