What exactly happens when you try to launch it?



I've been able to download the .dmg file and the disk image appears. But the icon highjacks my dock after I drag it to 'Applications' and just pulses in and out of the dock. I can't delete it, etc. I think I broke the cycle by force quitting and/or restarting.


One issue that seemed noteworthy is that if one tries to reinstall Firefox after either having an eralier version and/or an abortive attempt of the same version, any remaining files associated with the previous version can causes problems. I don't think this was the issue in my case, though.

I do want Firefox. I'm in Jaguar and Safari is less useful to me, since Apple won't allow me to update it. Sites important to me, like orkut and gmail don't support the jag version of Safari. Plus, I want a standalone browser if I can have one.

I think there were some thoughtful responses to my (and others') query, but I'm ashamed to say that I haven't been able to make it a priority, time-wise, to try to experiment with Firefox to get it to install. I should. This thread reminds me to do so.
