Widows Explorer

When I want to remove a programme, I go into the control panel and a message
says that windows explorer has stopped working. Then it says that the problem
is that fire fox has to be upgraded to version 2 which I did and still the
problem persists...

Technically, Windows Explorer is the file manager gui for the Windows OS.
Without knowing which version of Windows you have, I am not exactly sure how
to proceed.

I've only ever seen that issue with Firefox when it has been updated under a
Limited User Account in Windows XP. The solution was to changed the affected
user account to have administrative rights, and allow the Fx update to
proceed.
