The situation is as it should be.  You will *not* be getting any updates to *any*
packages for F14 which are in the "Fedora Repositories". 

The "Firefox" and "Thunderbird" maintainers take what is released by Mozilla and
package if for "Fedora" (they roll in all the language support, for instance) and
place it in the "Fedora Repositories" to be updated by yum or whatever you use to
update your system.

They have stopped doing that for F14.

Time to update to F16 or time to install your FF and TB directly from Mozilla.  I do
that on one of my RHEL systems and get notified of new updates.
