1) Fedora
2) Version 3.0
3) The Name of the file is firefox-1.0.6.installer.tar.gz
4) The script came with the package
5) The new version is at /home/chris/firedir/firefox-installer/ and the
application is x-shellscript. I do not know where the old version is at.
6) I am not sure about path. Where the new version is installed to me
would be that path. Also, I have a symbolic link from the firefox
installer directory to my desktop directory.
7) I got the package from http://www.mozilla.org/products/firefox/
thanks
Chris
