That's strange,cause you can install Firefox 3.6.3 with the build in installer.

Assuming your using 10.04 then your already using 3.6.3, but the tar.bz2 doesn't come with any installer that i can remember.

If your using 9.10 do this in the terminal (go applications>accessories>terminal)



sudo add-apt-repository ppa:mozillateam/firefox-stable

sudo apt-get update

sudo apt-get install firefox-3.6ps: When it asks for your password you won't see anything just keep tipping and hit enter when your done.
