Please do the following.

  1. Use IE8 or IE9 to Download Firefox 4.0.1 and save it to your desktop (do not use the "Run" option).

  2. If you have an earlier version of Firefox installed already, remove that in Add/Remove Programs choosing to keep your bookmarks, customizations etc., (don't checkmark the box).

  3. Next, reboot and delete the folder called "Mozilla Firefox" at this location: C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox

  4. Finally run the installation file you downloaded to the desktop earlier.

Your bookmarks, customizations etc., are maintained in a different location and will become available to you again once you complete the installation.

If you've never had Firefox on your system before, then you can skip steps 2 & 3.
