Pete, Do you know which version of Mozilla you're running? Typing 'which mozilla= '=20 at a shell prompt should tell you. You probably want to just get rid of the old version. First type 'rpm -qa |= =20 grep mozilla' at the prompt. You'll probably see a bunch of files named=20 mozilla-*-1.2.1.*. Running 'rpm -e <all of these files at once> will get r= id=20 of the old version. As for upgrading to the latest, you may just to download the latest mozilla= =20 rpms and install them. I know that Dag Wieer's repository=20 (http://dag.wieers.com/home-made/apt/) has version 1.6 since that's what I= =20 have on my updated FC1 system. I find yum to be a good tool for keeping my system up to date. Since FC1=20 comes with apt, just 'apt-get update' and 'apt-get install yum' to install= =20 yum. Then update /etc/yum.conf to point to the Dag's repository and also=20 freshrpm.net (http://freshrpms.net). In fact, I recommend using the freshr= pm=20 repository for even the core files instead of the redhat FC1 repository=20 because the former is so much faster. If any of this is confusing, don't hesitate to ask.
