repostiory issues = 404 Not Found


My question involves my pc at work. I have a computer that was inherited from a previous employee. It looks like Karmic was installed incorrectly or is corrupted in some way. The OS is now at version 10.10 and I believe the kernel has updated properly. Synaptic throws this error when I try to reload the packages:
Failed to fetch http://ppa.launchpad.net/mozillateam...rce/Sources.gz 404 Not Found
Failed to fetch http://ppa.launchpad.net/mozillateam...86/Packages.gz 404 Not Found
Some index files failed to download, they have been ignored, or old ones used instead.

The command sudo apt-get update throws these messages:

The issue is that I would really like to be able to update firefox and thunderbird. This is an IT business and security is essential so I like to use the latest stable apps.

Is there a fix that does not include reloading Ubuntu 10.10?

The fix is to find where the repository is located, it seems it may have been moved or has some change made to it, and adjust your sources.list to suit the new information.

Go to launchpad and take a look, google "launchpad mozilla" or something similar.
