Hi guys,
So I have been a safari guy for a while now but decided I will switch to Mozilla Firefox because it has so many add-ons. XD
I downloaded Firefox 3.5 from the Mozilla site but when I double click the .exe it says extracting and then when it gets to 100% it disappears and nothing else comes up :(
Does it work with Windows 7?
Are there any ways to get around this?
Thanks
PS: I am using Windows 7 RC1 X64

Definitely does work, I'm not sure what's wrong there.

Why don't you extract the file with WinRar and run the setup from the extracted folder?

Did you run it as admin maybe?

re-download FF3.5, you've likely got some sort of corruption on the initial download. and yes, it works with Win7.
Not sure if anybody else here has had this problem with 3.5,... Whenever you click an option be it on facebook or wherever, FF freezes for a few seconds!... bloody irritating! Can't wait till they fix this!

Works fine for me on Win7 x64 as well.
Best would be to try and download it again and give it another go.
Use the new Opera Browser - it's just better :D
