Mozilla problem


Please help me! I still get the same problem which is I tried to install the new version of Mozilla (1.5) into Mozilla (1.2) when it done and i tried to restart the computer, but when i click icons browser the browser open Mozilla version 1.2, and i don't know where is my new Mozilla that I had just install on. So what do I do. Do I need to reinstall it again or not?, or Do i need to uninstall the oldest version of Mozilla before install the new one in. If i need to uninstall the oldest version of Mozilla how do i do it. Please so me step-by-step. Thank you very much.

If you're using Linux, you don't need to restart the computer for a new Mozilla install. (Unless you're installing a new kernel, XFree86, or desktop-KDE/GNOME/etc, or other low-level program, you shouldn't have to restart--many of us install "nightlies", which are daily updates, every couple days.) Your problem is most likely that your link is still set up to point to your old install. Simply right-click it, adjust it to the correct folder, and you should be set. This seems like an obvious thing install should do, but if you're testing new builds, you'll like the fact that you can run new versions side-by-side with the old ones.
