Using FF 3.6.6 on XP SP3. FF started downloading the update. After about an hour (dial up connection) the progress bar was completely filled and the dialog box said only a few more seconds. However, the downloading had stopped and the dialog box remained open. Finally, I just quit FF.

Now whenever FF is open, in the Help menu it says "Resume Downloading Firefox 3.6.7..." When I select this, the dialog box says "Connecting to update server..." but it never connects and the downloading never starts.

How can I find the file that was downloaded and get rid of it so I can download a new copy?

Operating system

XP SP3

Same on Win7/64-Bit.

Trying to upgrade from Firefox 3.6.6 but the download dialog is stuck with the message "Connecting to update server...".

I followed the instructions in this thread, see the post from Costas Athan, and after closing Firefox 3.6.6 then deleting the updates folder plus the two xml files and restarting Firefox I was able to update successfully.

Thanks Neil. Followed your link and was able to delete the corrupted files. I'm in the process of downloading 3.6.8.
