Please try using terminal:

Please open a Terminal from the menu Applications → Accessories → Terminal and type:

sudo apt-get -f install
sudo apt-get clean
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get upgrade

give your user password when requested, you don't see nothing when you type it, then press enter.

If this do not solve your issue please try to remove firefox and then reinstall it...

If you need further help please copy and paste here the result of this terminal command:

dpkg -l | grep -i firefox

Hope this helps

If you click on the links that have formed from your links you will find the files do not exist. However

http://security.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/main/f/firefox-3.0/

does. You will find the update that marcobra suggests will resolve it, alternatively if you use my link you can manually download the debs you need by marcobra's advice should be followed first.

Following the links given by you I saw there's no 3.0.12 but there's 3.0.13.
And the same is with 1.9.0.12 - it's replaced with 1.9.0.13.

They have updated too ;-)
