IF I try to install a new vesrion of firefox it says an older version is still in the process of downloading and I should reboot the PC, but this achieves nothing at all. the Uninstall feature within control panel doesn't work, and If I try to manually launch the uninstaller in C program files that doesn't work either . What next? The pc seems to be functioning with firefox derivative.
