Loading ...is firefox hard for a beginner to install, i have only been using the cpu for 8 months, i have winxp-sp2 Help!
i did have firefox installed but had to take it out because i had some trojans and spyware and when i did a printout it said from firefox default so i panicked and took it out, it kept shutting down on me and I did not install. So I really went in to it blind I felt. Also now i have the two spyware programs running Avg and Norton I had Spybot prior to Norton and I already feel I have made a mistake taking that out(they both ran together, but I understand spybot is not the same thing)I know its not a good idea but don’t know which one to uninstall because i hear avg is the best even though you pay for Norton and its good too but a memory hog . I must be able to disable the email scanner on one of them if that is the only problem i have heard about. And that would be Norton. I guess. Norton found 2 trojans that avg missed for the record. Please advise before I mess with more options I shouldn’t touch. I don’t know how this message board works and posted earlier but this says i didn’t.

No, what you need to do is to download Firefox for Windows from Mozilla.com, double click (run) the installer.

Installing Firefox
Once you have downloaded Firefox, follow these instructions to install:
Windows
Double click the Firefox Setup 1.5.exe installer to start the install.

Lets go step by step.
(1)First of all, firefox is much safer as compared to Internet Explorer.
(2)Running 2 Antiviruses at the same time is not a good Idea
(3)Norton is definitely a memory hog
(4)Norton has a little better virus index than others
First of all, go to Windows Update Website
http://windowsupdate.microsoft.com/
Install all the updates
Update norton’s virus index through live update feature
Scan your comp once fully
Uninstall it, use only avg afterwards
Also download Ad-ware Personal Version from http://www.lavasoft.com and use it for spyware scanning
