Ihad Gears installed since I activated offline access for gmail.
Having upgraded to Firefox 3.5, Gears (0.5.2.3) was marked as not
being compatible with Firefox 3.5. When trying to reactivate offline
gmail, was advised that Gears was required - but the download fails
(Cannot start application. Cannot complete download - with the log
file saying:
"ERROR DETAILS
