Firefox will not start, or allow windows xp to uninstall the program. When I attempt to start the program, firefox says "your computer must be restarted to complete a previous upgrade of firefox. do you want to reboot now? It gives the same message after rebooting, and will not start, or uninstall. I also downloaded it again, same thing. 

This happened

Every time Firefox opened

== I downloaded an update.
