Your browser reported to the forum that you are running version 3.6.6. Can you verify that using the Help > About Firefox dialog?

Which file did you download: Firefox 3.6.27 or Firefox 10.0.2?

(If you need to re-download, you can choose from the files on these pages:
http://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/all for 10.0.2 or
http://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/all-older for 3.6.27)

Make sure to close Firefox before launching the installer for the newer version. Do you get any error messages when you start it? It might take a minute for the installer to check itself before you get a dialog.
