Upon updating to firefox 6, I get the error message "cannot update because 'libsmime3.dylib' is in use" Now firefox cannot start because it is partially updated and non-functional.

Firefox fails to open, now that it has been partially updated. Initially, it asked to replace the old firefox, which then proceeded to the next step when this appears: "cannot update because 'libsmime3.dylib' is in use". I have quit all applications and restarted, trying to run the install again as the first thing when the computer comes up. Mac version is OS X 10.5.8.
