Up-Date to Firefox 2 - Mr Nobby - 2007-01-15


I downloaded Firefox2 and found it to be in a Tar.gz file, Now reading the forums and following the instructions


I find it end up in a mess. There has to be a better way.


 


Please does anybody know how to install Firefox2 using a Tar.gz file. once I've learned it I never forget it.


 


Cheers
