Simply go through the menu items to pop up the About window: Firefox->About Mozilla Firefox. But that's not really the main focus of this article....

A bit silly that MobileMe is user-agent sniffing. And we’re making Ubiquity better behaving after uninstall." It's not silly many things use the user-agent for style layout, feature subsets, and browser support warnings. The problem of course is that the MobileMe code doesn't parse it correctly. “Hey — sorry about that. A bit silly that MobileMe is user-agent sniffing.

I had/have the exact same problem. I'm working on uninstall Ubiquity right now.... which apparently can't be done by just removing the add-on.
