I have an Acer Aspire One Netbook. It runs "Linpus Linux Lite" OS. It came with Forefox 2 installed. I have searched the web for advice on how to upgrade to Firefox 3.5.

I had a go at it, I have now lost Firefox 2, but failed to install a later version.

Can someone tell me how t0 get either Firefox 2 back, or better still, unstall Firefox 3.5?

I should say that I'm a novice so I need really basic instructions.

If this plea for help doesn't work, I'll take my netbook to my local PC chap & ask for Windows to be installed on it!

Thanks.
