Comment #33 on issue 975 by johnfsca: FF 3.0.15 said to be incompatible with Gears 0.5.33.0
http://code.google.com/p/gears/issues/detail?id=975

I tried the approach of thiagofreirels, and the annoying error message went away. Thinking out loud: I am wondering if this effectively disables a check for a later version (indefinitely), and perhaps this is what has been happening: FF goes off to Gears to look of 0.5.33, finds the 64-bit version that troyengels found (though I haven't), notes the build discrepancy (since it can't find a 32-bit version) and carps.

I'm still a bit mystified as to why I never saw a request to move beyond version 0.5.32, which the Gears site declares to be the current version. However, I note that
in my FF Config I have the following:

extensions.update.notifyUser = false

Perhaps, then, something is going on in the background that I don't see. (Changing
that value to true, however, seems to make no difference.)

In any case, I am not getting the error message, but I also suspect that automatic
checking for Gears updates has been disabled. Gears is working, though.
