How can I remove Firefox 4.0 from my computer?

I recently attempted to install Firefox 4.0, but I have been unable to complete the installation.
Every time I have tried to use 4.0, I have gotten a message that tells me to restart my computer to complete installation. However, after I've restarted the computer numerous times, the installation remains incomplete. Instead of the usual Firefox icon, there is an icon of an open box and a disc.
After many attempts to complete the installation of 4.0, I tried to uninstall it. However, the computer refused to uninstall it, because the program never finished installing in the first place. I got the usual message to restart the computer, which accomplished nothing.
I then tried to use System Restore to restore the previous version of Firefox, but the computer could not complete the restoration, because 4.0 has not finished installing. After using System Restore, Firefox 3.6.15 is now listed in the Programs list, but I still cannot uninstall it. I still get the "restart computer" message.
Currently, I'm still seeing the box/disc icon, but now when I click it, it does nothing at all.
Is there no way to rid my computer of the awful scourge that is Firefox 4.0?

<br /> Don't know about Windoze, but on the Mac that is not a problem at all.

<br /> The install path for ACR in Photoshop 7 and 8 is entirely different from the above. So you can have all four iterations of ACR installed, one for each version of Photoshop.
<br />
<br /> I keep Photoshop 7.0.1, 8, 9.0.2 and 10 installed. I can even run more than one version of Photoshop at once, I just have to start the older version first.

  • How can I remove an iTunes account from a computer I'm giving away?

    How do I remove my iTunes account from a computer that I am giving to a student in my school? I want the music I purchased to play, but I don't want the student to have access to my email address or my credit card that is tied to "my account". I went through the steps to deauthorize a computer but encountered two problems:  1) The only command offered was "deauthorize all". There was no list of the authorized computers where I could check a box to select the one to deauthorize.  2) If I want to leave the music with the computer, but remove the authorization.

    If you are giving the computer away you should not include music you've purchased: the purchase doesn't include the right to make copies to give to other people, which is what you would in effect be doing. The same applies to any purchased sofrtware which wasn't bundled with the computer when new.
    The proper procedure when selling or giving a computer is to erase it completely and restore it to its out-of-the-box condition from the original disks. You should also make sure to include the disks which came with the computer.

  • How can I remove version 3.5 from my computer... the add/remove programs will not work, I have 3.6 installed and 3.5 is taking up over 2 gigabytes of disk space according to the add/remove in the control panel and nothing I do will remove 3.5

    I have been trying to make room on my C drive and have been removing stuff I don't use. I have version 3.6 Firefox but my settings show I also have 3.5 which shows over 2,000 megabytes of disc space being used. I try to remove it but nothing happens, nor can I find it when searching "my computer" to try and kill it. Why would any program use up 2 gig of space?
    == This happened ==
    Every time Firefox opened
    == I was trying to find a way to clear up space on my C drive

    If you need to consider removing 30MB folders to create space then I imagine your hdd is seriously short of space. Normally I think it is often suggested a minimum of 20-25% free space be left on a Windows machine hdd. How much free space % wise have you at present.
    You probably have already thought of these, a lack of space could slow things down and may even contribute to crash problems.
    *Not using the Hibernate feature will release one largish chunk.
    *Not keeping video files on the HDD unnecessarily is also likely to save space.

  • I just installed Firefox 5. How can I remove the Bing search from the address bar? I don't want to see Bing at all.

    I just installed Firefox 5. How can I remove the Bing search from the address bar. I don't want to see Bing at all. I tired the Firefox options, right-clicking on the search field and the toolbar selection drop-down but could not find a way to get rid of that unwanted search window.

    *'''at the bottom of firefox''' there is a weird looking greenish circle with a lightning bolt in it*
    1. click it and hover over to '''PREFERENCES'''.
    2. click the second circle that say's '''BING.'''
    3. '''Un-check''' both boxes.
    4. you're done :)
    Note: it's not going to show the google symbol encrypt when you open a new tab it's just going to automatically use google as a search engine.

  • HT3702 how can i remove the authorization hold from my card...

    how can i remove the authorization hold from my card

    You can try contacting iTunes support : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ - click on Express Lane, then iTunes > iTunes Store
    How much was the amount ? A 'normal' holding charge is a small amount (e.g. equivalent to about $1), and usually happens after you add or change credit card details on your account. Here in the UK it can take a few working days for it to disappear (so a weekend can extend the elapsed time).
    Edit : I don't know what a non-liability certificate is and/or whether Apple can do one.

    Here's some more detail:
    You have to do this from ITunes on your computer.  You can't do it from itunes.com.
    First start ITunes.  On the left side of the screen, go to Store and then ITunes Store.  From the Quicklinks on the right side of the screen, go to Account.  After you sign in, you will see your account and payment information.  Click on Edit next to Payment Type.  Click None, next to Visa MasterCard Amex Discover.  It will then remove your credit card from your ITunes Account.
