I'm using Firefox 1.0.4 . Under Tools menu there is no Add-ons option available.
But i found it under Tools -> Extensions
And uninstalled it . Thanks for your help

I'm using Firefox 1.0.4

That's really an old version of Firefox. Are you unable to upgrade to a later version for some reason? You'd probably have much better security if you do so, and I know you'd have better browser features.

By all means.

Firefox doesn't do branches. And as such, old versions are completely unmaintained. If you use firefox 1.0.4 then you are vulnerable to evey vulnerability that has been fixed since jan/2004 or so. Very bad thing.

Ok.Just now i downloaded firfox from here
Firefox web browser | Faster, more secure, & customizable

and i got a .gz file - How to install it?
I tried these steps
How to install firefox-2.0.tar.gz in Linux
but getting error
I perfer to upgrade it - because it won't want to lose my bookmarks

Any thoughts ??

Which distro and version of Linux are you using?
Extract tar.gz package. It will create firefox folder. Look for firefox script and double click on it. Latest version will pop up.

I refuse to believe that 1.x is the latest version in your distribution. Use your package manager to update it. You might first need to update the packages database or something.

What linux distribution are you using?

my linux version also older one ..It's FC4

$uname -a 
Linux pc021698 2.6.11-1.1369_FC4smp #1 SMP Thu Jun 2 23:08:39 EDT 2005 i686 i686 i386 GNU/Linux

Yes.I extracted it and it created a firefox directory .
but within that directory

When i type :

 ./firefox &

It throws an error

./firefox-bin: error while loading shared libraries: libstdc++.so.5: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

Is it because i'm using older kernel version ?

I see... It's really really old. You should update to a later fedora release (or whatever you like better).

I doubt that that version of fedora will support the needed libs. The easier way would be to update your system. You can always save your home directory, so all your bookmarks and stuff will be preserved.
