I downloaded the Firefox 9.0.1.dmg and it asks me what should firefox do with this file. I don't know what software to choose to open it. When I just press ok, it says welcome to the open xml format converter for mac. I press ok and it says Ipen XML Converter cannot find the components needed to convert files.

Save the file to your computer (desktop).

Open the Firefox disk image (DMG) file and drag the Firefox program to the application folder on your hard drive.
You shouldn't double-click the Firefox application to run it from the disk image, but drag it out of the DMG folder instead.
