I am downloading Firefox 3.6.8 and just trying to move the Firefox icon onto the Application folder and I have received the message 'The operation cannot be complete because you do not have sufficient privileges for some of the items.

What else do I need to download this version of Firefox - what privileges do I need and how do I get them?

I have a MacBook Pro OS X Version 10.4.11 Processor 2.16 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo; Memory 1 GB 667 MHz RAM

Download a new copy of the Firefox program: http://www.mozilla.com/firefox/all.html

Trash the current Firefox application to do a clean reinstall.

Install the new version that you have downloaded.

Your profile data is stored elsewhere in the Firefox Profile Folder, so you won't lose your bookmarks and other personal data.
