I noticed when using Ctl Alt Del that the version of Firefox installed is 32 bit. I have a 64 bit system. When I go to download page I'm only offered the 32 bit version. How do I get the 64 bit version?

Mozilla hasn't released a Win 64 version of Firefox just yet. Beta, Aurora, and Nightly pre-release versions are available tho. The 32-bit version works fine and more plugins are available, too. Only Flash is available for the Win 64-bit version; no other plugins aren't available.
