I cannot get to the internet because MS Internet Explorer has stopped working & I would like to use firefox anyway. Is there a way to install from zip drive? I am using Windows 7

The Firefox download is the complete installer, and yes, you can run it from external storage such as CD, ZIP, or USB flash drive. https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/fx/#desktop

You probably want to get IE repaired as well, since Windows uses the components of IE to check for updates, among other things. This isn't the best forum for Windows help. You could try here: http://windowssecrets.com/forums/forumdisplay.php/52-Windows-7-Forum
