I just downloaded Firefox 4 for Mac OSX, when I tried to install it, the installation stopped and the message "1 of 2 selected, Zero KB available" appeared at the top of the installation box.

Now the Firefox icon has a stop sign in it and the Firefox.app cannot be launched.

During installation, I did tell it to overwrite a newer app, presumably the Firefox 3 update I had just installed. Also, I did close the Firefox 3 app prior to the attempted install.

Now I'm screwed and cant get anything. I'm sending this using Safari.

I did this same thing earlier. I used Safari to go get the older, one I had, version. Downloaded it, installed it. Then when I checked on my bookmarks, they were all still there. Good Luck. I have an older iMac.
