canot install update - mac has insufficient priviledges - what does that mean?
I get the box that says firefox has a security update that should be installed asap - go through all the steps - everything fine up to replacing this version for the older version then it says cannot install as I have insufficient privileges. The next time I use firefox the update alert comes up again . I have MAC OSX 10.5.8

- Download a new copy of the Firefox program.
- Firefox 4.0: http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all.html
- Firefox 3.6: http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all-older.html
- Trash the current Firefox application to do a clean (re-)install.
- Install the new version that you have downloaded.
Your profile data is stored elsewhere in the Firefox Profile Folder, so you won't lose your bookmarks and other personal data.
Worked a treat! Thank you so much.....
