1.) Download the officially compiled binary tarball fo Firefox from:
http://www.mozilla.com/firefox/

2.) Unpack the tarball to a temp place, e.g.
Code:
tar xzvf firefox-2.0.0.3.tar.gz -C /tmp/

3.) In the terminal window type the following command(and input your password afterwards):

Code:
sudo cp /tmp/firefox/libxpcom* /usr/lib/firefox/

That sounds very complicated so If i ever get ubuntu i hopefully wont have to uninstall firefox!! Then I would just die of the steps. That sounds very very complicated and I don't think I could follow all that.

Reckon it does. He's just a telephone call away. Or, if you had a walkie talkie, even closer. Tongue
