I must be missing something. I don't see anything here about Java, and I
don't see anything to be concerned about. What am I overlooking?

I can tell you from the link they have nothing to do with each other.
I think someone posted the wrong page.

Don't know why you could not follow links so they this.

These aren't the links you sent before.

By the way, how are you using Incredimail under Linux?

not sure what happened but my web browser is not working (2.0.0.6+1).
when launched, it gives me this error:

Firefox is already running but it is not responding. To open a new
window........., or restart your system.

I shutdown and restarted, it still does not work. I reinstalled thru
the synaptic package manager, and re-launched, it still does not work.
removed the firefox, and again reinstalled, still does not work. i ran
out of option.

i went to the mozilla size, the latest version is the 2.0.0.7,
downloaded but could not figure out how to install. and i can't mark
the firefox 2.0.0.6+1 in the synaptic manager to get updated with the
latest version.

i need help. thanks for the support.

fyi - i am now using the epiphany (GNOME web browser) which i just
installed. but i would like to have the firefox back.

Try using the kill command if it is still in process,and then try
running it again. That should do it.

i run launched again the firefox and got the same error pop-up.

used the kill xxxx command, but it killed the error pop-up. i think
there are now missing files in the firefox but not sure what. as i
have done the reinstall earlier but to no avail.

btw, the error pop-up is like this in the command line:

/usr/lib/firefox/firefox-bin

when i killed this process, the error pop-up is shutdown.

what should i do next. and thanks.

If you do not have any important files on your computer you could always do
a fresh install. As for not fresh intalling Ubuntu...hmmm...perhaps install
epiphany and search online on google as to what others have discovered
having the same, or similar problems. Also...what is this (+1) thing you
speak of? I am running the same thing, but minus the +1. Maybe you got
into the Gutsy suppositories?

sorry but i have Xubuntu 7.04 (i got a PII 450Mhz) and i got the
firefox installed version "2.0.0.6+1-0ubuntu1" from the synaptic
manager. before doing the fresh install of the Xubuntu, i am
installing the following additional firefox files:

firefox-dbg
firefox-gnome-support
firefox-launchpad-plugin

if this will still not work, i will do a fresh install of the Xubuntu.

it did not work... if i do a fresh install of the Xubuntu, would i
just pop-in the CD-ROM and follow the rest of the instructions.
