If I install a new version of Mozilla Firefox, do I first have to uninstall the older version?
Nope, just use the update function in firefox and it will do everything itself :thumb:
I have a few versions on my PC according to my registry...
depends what version you currently have.
i think you need to for versions 0.8 and below, but anything above should be fine.
That's precisely what I meant... I installed 1.03 on the same directory as 1.01 (without previous uninstall of this one) and according to the registry I now have both.Quote:

It's 1.03 but as I said, "Firefox Setup 1.0.7.exe" downloaded to my desktop and stayed there... I tried to place it in "c:\program files\Mozilla Firefox\extensions" but it didn't work either. Nor would it work after I downloaded again the file, this time directly to the extensions folder.Quote:
