If  you do not see the AirPort Utility application when you open Macintosh HD > Applications > Utilities, it may not have downloaded correctly with the latest Lion operating system update. Your AirPort Express has been programmed with its current settings...so it is remembering them.

 

You can download the current version of AirPort Utility from here:

 

AirPort Utility 6.0 for Mac OS X Lion

 

 

Also, I am running 10.7.3 not 10.4, not sure why it was detected that way.

It is up to you to update your online profile manually for the support area. Click on your user name to get to your info to update your operating system and other products. Apple does not pull the info from your computer. If they could...they could pull much more....which you probably do not want.
