Downloaded latest version of Thunderbird. When I run the setup file I get the message Thunderbird needs Windows 7 or later to run and the install program quits. I checked my system info in Control panel and I am running Windows 7 Home, service pack 1.

is or has Thunderbird been installed before? I am guessing it might have been set to run in XP mode and that information is still in the registry.
