Delete the Firefox directory and then apply regclean (Google for it ...
it's on a MSFT site somewhere.)

You should be done. Reinstall Firefox.

I just went from Fedora Core 2.0 Linux to Mandrake 10 Community Linux and
lost nothing. Nothing.


Normally I'd agree with you about reloading Firefox, but it and
Mozilla have a major security problem at the moment. You'll have
to turn off Java, Javascript and about everrything that makes it
useful versus IE to stop the problem. Hopefully a fix will be in
the next version, the new one doesn't have a fix.



Got a link? My sources don't seem to mention anything current. One of
us has newer information than the other...not sure who.


That information is not correct. Comparatively,
if Firefox "has a major security problem" then IE
"has NO security."

Brian Livingston just had a recent article on
Firefox vs. IE in the latest online issue of his
news column. Good information.
