I upgraded to Snow Leopard and now when I try to start Firefox it gives me the following error:

SQLite Version Error The application has been updated, but your version of SQLite is too old and the application cannot run.

It won't start in safe mode. I've rebooted my mac in safe mode and then started normally to clear my cache. Firefox is not sending crash reports.

Did you try to update the SQLite library to the latest version via software update?

I updated it via this page: http://c-command.com/tools/sqlite

and that worked. Thanks!

I've had this exact same problem since upgrading to 10.6 in February (I've been subsisting on Firefox 3.0 ever since), and I've never been able to figure out how to update sqlite. Can you explain how you did this? The disk image I downloaded from that site you linked to has nothing but a command line UNIX executable, a library file (no idea where to put this), and a readme that doesn't explain anything useful. Any help would be appreciated.
