lasst couple of days Firefox would crash for unknown reasons. this problem did not occur until I instatlled firefox 6. Last night it crashed several times over a 15 minute time span. I uninstalled firefox and then tried to reinstall. pop up window required I have administration privileges in order to install. Never required this before. I have windows 7 and have no desire to have to completely reinstall software becasue firefox 6 was so unstable.

I read a way on another forum to fix this problem. Right click on the setup.exe and select "Run as administrator" this should solve your problem.
