  1. Download it then double click it?


  2. go to www.mozilla.com

  3. . Download the product

    You can download the latest version of Firefox for free from here:

    http://www.mozilla.org/products/Firefox/

    The current version is V2.0 and the Windows installation file is 5.6MB

    2. Uninstall any old versions

    If you have any previous versions of Firefox,  then uninstall them before you install the new version.  Don't worry about losing your settings and extensions, they will be saved and transferred to the new version.   Technically there is no need need to uninstall older versions as Firefox 2 will write over old versions and retain your settings. However based on feedback from my subscribers there appears to be fewer problems if you uninstall first.

    There is no need to uninstall Internet Explorer. In fact, it's surprisingly difficult to do so as it is so closely integrated into the Windows operating system. Just don't do it. Besides you may need it to view some non standards compliant web sites.

    3. Install Firefox

    Locate the file you downloaded in step 1. It should be called Firefox Setup 2.0.exe or something very similar. Double click on the file to start installation.

    Once the install is under way agree to the license and accept the suggested default options.

    At one stage in the Firefox installation you will be asked whether you want to make Firefox your default browser. I suggest you initially answer "no." That way you can test out Firefox without altering any of your current Windows settings.

    If at a later date you want to make Firefox your default browser you can do so by selecting this option from within Firefox.

    After installation, the Firefox Import Setting Wizard will run asking whether you want to import your favorites, internet options, cookies, saved passwords and a variety of other data settings from Internet Explorer. Answer "yes" to all- having all this information within Firefox makes for a much smoother transition.

  4. go to download.com and search it

  5. http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/

  6. download from here http://www.mozilla.org/products/Firefox/ double click on installer let it run then accept the license then install it from there
