Thanks Bill, I know it would usually need restarted, as most apps do, but was 
wondering why it caused an assertion (not typical) when I wasn't doing anything. 
  It could have been an extension making some action, I don't know.  I'd also 
like to hear if anyone had this occur who was not using/running Firefox at the 
time of update.

I won't bugzilla this unless someone else saw it, with my large extension set 
there is no way of knowing at the moment whose fault it was.
