Thanks for the bug report. Can you please attach a screenshot of the problem to this bug report. Sounds like the string is not being localized(?). which exists in the .destop file of firefox.

This isn't a unity bug at all - the translation in the firefox desktop file is incorrect

This bug was fixed in the package firefox - 4.0+nobinonly-0ubuntu1

---------------
firefox (4.0+nobinonly-0ubuntu1) natty; urgency=low

  * Bump the version number to 4.0 final. This is just so we stop confusing
    people with rc2 in the version number, but the tarball is identical

  * Update globalmenu-extension code to 1.0
    - Drop the hacks we had to workaround the lack of menu closed signals from
      Unity. We no longer synthesize our own menu closed events, but use the
      proper event from dbusmenu.
    - In addition to this, we split the work done during menu opening in to
      2 phases - the first phase triggered off "about-to-show" and the second
      phase triggered off "opened". In the future, we should be able to delay
      the menu opening with the about-to-show handler, which is where we
      do all the work to update the menu
    - Fix LP: #755701 - When iterating over each label, check if the current
      character equals the access key (to set a flag indicating we've already
      seen it) *before* we mangle the label, rather than after it.
      This fixes an issue where we never set the flag, and subsequently see
      the mnemonics repeated multiple times in labels
    - Also remove the hack we had to add placeholder entries to empty menus
      so that we could get an about-to-show signal (now that LP: #619811
      is fixed)

  * Fix typo in German translation of static quicklist item (LP: #750220)
    - update debian/firefox-*.desktop.in
  * Re-enable -pie (LP: #663294)
   - update debian/rules
