Can't install 3.6.3 on Powermac 10.5.8 because I "do not have sufficient privileges for some of the items." What is the issue?

See http://kb.mozillazine.org/Installing_Firefox#Mac_OS_X ..... 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.

Thanks very much. All I needed to do was trash the old version before moving the new one to the application folder.
