After upgrading to Firefox 5.0 I was unable to access the internet. Instead I was getting a message box asking me to Locate Link Browser and provide a file name. I do not know what a link browser is or where to locate it. Can you help please? Thank you.

This can happen when some registry settings get confused between Firefox and Internet Explorer. In that case, it occurs only when you click a link while Firefox is closed; you don't get an error if Firefox was already open. Please try the solution in this article:
