Windows 7 Home Premium Edition (64-bit) New system just trying to clean up a little and find that V6.0.2 is still on the list of installed programs, When I go to uninstall it appears that it is going to uninstall ALL firefox. I don;t really want to do that.

You can remove that orphaned registry entry yourself with the registry editor (regedit.exe) or use a registry cleaner. 

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall\Mozilla Firefox (????)

Thanks. I could find no refence to v6 in the registry. I reinstalled v7 and that fixed it.

Thanks again
