For those that use the stub installer in lieu of the full installer from Download Firefox in your language (https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/all/) should deselect send installation metrics to Mozilla (this is nothing short of Spyware) Screencapture shows.

Hmm, somehow I managed to get Firefox ESR
45.0...
32 or 64 bit? I double-checked and have 32-bit ESR version 38.7.0 (as I recall, previous version 38.6.1).
x86 this time around, I use it so little, there's no need for x64.
I just backtracked a loong way (I've also had Nvidia driver issues (http://wccftech.com/nvidia-users-beware-latest-drivers-damage-pc/) ) and on the Localisations page (https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/organizations/all/), there's an ill-defined (esp. for someone with a colour deficiency) option:
QuoteFully localized versions Show Firefox 45 | Firefox 38
Time for an uninstall and revert to the tried and trusted v38 build.
Looks like come May, we will be moving from v 38 to v 45 on ESR.
This one seems rather urgent based on the changelog: https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/45.0.1/releasenotes/

My FF ESR was updated to 38.7.1 tonight
I'm not sure the actual date of this update.

QuoteVersion 38.7.1, first offered to ESR channel users on March 16, 2016
Firefox released a patch to 45.0, it is now 45.0.1 released March 16, 2016
This was more of a bug fix, no security fixes.

HAH, I know why I didn't do the browser update. I was busy dealing with trying to update Windows 7 and trouble shooting those issues!
I'll mark in my notes to look for an update close to April 19th. It is my backup browser so I don't fire it up too often.
Since ESR will continue to be updated through v 38, sometime in May, I'll move to the next ESR version 45.
Firefox updated to 45.0.2
https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/45.0.2/releasenotes/
