Firefox won't run once I download it
I went on the Mozilla website to download Firefox. I clicked "Run" on the popup box and it downloaded. I then clicked "Run" again to begin installation, and nothing happened. The little box went away, and there's no Mozilla files on my computer. I tried this twice and the same thing happed both times.

Please do the following.
- Using Internet Explorer 7 or 8, click this link: Download Firefox 5.0.1
- When you see the popup, click "Save" (do not click "Run") and save the file to your desktop.
- After the download completes, click Tools, then Internet Options in Internet Explorer.
- Click the "Programs" tab and remove the checkmark from "Tell me if Internet Explorer is not the default browser".
- Click Apply/OK to close the dialog box.
- Double click the file you downloaded called firefox 5.0.1.exe to start the installation.
- After it installs, Firefox creates a desktop shortcut so click that to launch it.
- Click the orange Firefox button top left and go to Options | Options and then click the Advanced button in the menu which appears. That's the one on the far right at the top.
- In the General tab, checkmark the following: "Always check to see if Firefox is the default browser on startup" and then click the "Check Now" button.
- Click OK to close the menu.
You are now ready to go.
First port of call will be to add a few extensions which you'll find here: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/?browse=featured
I suggest the following:
- Adblock Plus to block ads: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/adblock-plus/
- Status 4-Evar to restore the status bar: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/status-4-evar/
- Context Search to allow you to use the right click menu to search with: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/context-search/
- Add To Search Bar to add to existing search engines: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/add-to-search-bar/
I'm sure you'll find many more yourself. ;)
