Can't find or install mozilla browser


Hi there,
I cannot seem to DL and install the mozilla browser.

On my previous Kubuntu installation, I had both mozilla and firefox, and used mozilla to view things on the web that needed the mplayer plugin. Now that I have upgraded to Kubuntu 7.04, I can't find it in Adept.

When I use konsole:
sudo apt-get install mozilla-browser

I get:
Package mozilla-browser is not available, but is referred to by another package.
This may mean that the package is missing, has been obsoleted, or
is only available from another source
E: Package mozilla-browser has no installation candidate

I do seem to need this, as when I point my firefox at somewhere like stage6.divx.com/ the embedded 'player' says: for linux support try mplayer.
Previously this was simple - use mozilla/mplayer for this site, now however I'm unsure how to proceed.

Thanks for any advice.
ps, my sources list if its any use:

thanks pixellany,
I gave this a whirl, but unfortunately, still no streaming media for me yet...
