Did you make sure that all files in the Firefox program folder (C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\) are removed and that folder as well?
You can try to boot Windows in Safe mode (press F8 on the boot screen) to see if that allows to install Firefox.
You can also try a custom install in a different directory like "C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox6\"

Install Firefox using the downloaded & saved Firefox installer file
Check and tell if its working.
tried that twice. if I could get an earlier version I would install and try. First tho I will rollback to a restore point.
Create a New Profile as a test to check if your current profile is causing the problems.

This won't help the OP, but FWIW I simply reinstalled 6.0.2 (without doing the uninstall) and all appears to be well.
Do you have ZoneAlarm Extreme?
tried to run but the same problem occurs - I cannot get past the error to be able to change the profile.
tried that too....
yes. I shut down zonealarm and reinstalled but the same error occurs.

hhmmm. I created a new directory, and installed ok. checking all the instances of firefox and version references in files across the pc will take a while. but I'll see if I can find the offending snippet.
Installing using the custom option and designating a new directory worked for me also. Thanks for the suggestion.
Glad to hear it
