ɹəuəllıʍ ʇɐb Posted November 30, 2005 Report Share Posted November 30, 2005 My previous version is 1.0.7 .............. not 1.4 ???1.4 was the beta version of 1.5. You should be able to simply upgrade from 1.0.x to 1.5.However, this is not the English/British version yet. Nor are many of the extensions supported yet.Non-US languages of FF 1.5 are available from http://www.mozilla.com/firefox/all.htmlThe newest version of the Google toolbar works Ok with 1.5. Spellbound also is supposed to work, but I was told that I may need to reinstall Spellbound in 1.5 to have it working correctly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

andsome Posted December 1, 2005 Report Share Posted December 1, 2005 How on earth can something be modified from proper English to make a British version? I don't know of a language called PROPER English. I know of English, or bastardised versions such as American English, Australian English etc etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
