Firefox 8.0.1 won't start on my Windows XP computer

loaded Firefox 8.0.1 onto my Windows XP computer, and went through the installation process smoothly. But then, when I tried to use Firefox, it wouldn't start. I tried hitting the icon on the desktop, and also tried to run the program from the *.exe file in the My Programs part of the computer. Neither worked.

My previous version of Firefox was version 6.x, and worked perfectly. Now, I have nothing on this computer except IE. Any help would be appreciated.
