We downloaded firefox 5.0.1 last night, began working with it. It did fine. After about an hour, I turned off my computer. When I turned on my computer, I click on Mozilla Firefox and it won't start. I get this error message, " Error: Platform version '5.0' is not compatible with minVersion >=5.0.1 maxVersion <=5.0.1" from XUL Runner. What do I need to do to fix it?

If using Zone Alarm's browser virtualization or any other similar product or a sand-boxing program (i.e., Sandboxie), turn it off when updating Firefox or Firefox Add-ons. You can post on the forum for any such product that you might be using to get other instructions on the proper use of the product.

On the top of the above message is says XULRunner
I have exactly the same problem and my Zone Alarm Security software is causing the problem when I try to open Firefox, however this did not happen in any previous versions of Firefox I have had, including version 6.0.0
I would also greatly appreciate help on this one, or at least hope Mozilla will sort this out in another update. -

I have been using Firefox for quite some time (years). It tried to upgrade Firefox and since then have not been able to get it to open, each time it comes up with that popup window, with my only option being to click on the OK button, which terminates the operation.

When I brought up my machine this afternoon, it started to download 6.0.1 and then I received an error msg from ZoneAlarm requesting that I upload an error file. This occurred several times, and then I uninstalled the Firefox files and again downloaded 6.0.1. At this point I then received the Version 6.0/6.0.1 error msg.
If you use ZoneAlarm Extreme then you may have to disable that during the installation to prevent ZA from blocking access to some files in the Firefox program folder (C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\).

I should have added, this popup relates to XULRunner. I suppose this is a support file that needs to run for firefox to open and run properly.
That can happen if the updater wasn't able to update (replace) all the files in the Firefox program folder (C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\).
