How do I delete unwanted folders
 

I noticed after uninstalling Firefox that the folder is still listed in the files/etc ... how do I delete these files?

/etc/firefox
/etc/firefox-3.0
/etc/forefox-3.5

rm -rf /etc/firefox
rm -rf /etc/firefox-3.0
rm -rf /etc/forefox-3.5

this will delete the folders and all files within them.

Thanks a lot as that appears to have done the trick ;)
I've made a note of those commands for future reference.

gael.

You're welcome, I came back to linux this year after being off of it since just before slackware 3 was released and could not for the life of me remember that I needed to add the -rf after rm to remove a folder with files.

I'm very grateful that you did come back as I have benefited from your return ... cheers :)
