    Unity thinks I'm running Minefield 3.5 instead of Firefox

    For some reason this morning Unity decided that instead of running Firefox 16, I'm actually running Minefield 3.5. If I click the Firefox icon, it loads firefox, but the launcher doesn't change to indicate that firefox is open, and instead has a launcher for Minefield 3.5.

    Here's a screenshot for an example:

    I looked and I don't appear to have minefield installed. There was a menu entry for minefield that was disabled, and I deleted it. Still the same, after restarts.

    Halp?

    Same problem here. It started just after an update.

    Solved. In the folder ~/.local/share/applications there was file named firefox-3.5.desktop. Just deleted it and now the icons are ok.
