The 31.0 stub file failed to upgrade on my XP system but was able to overwrite with full install file. But the Windows 7 refuses to update or overwrite. It gets as far as extracting the files and then just stops.

Try emptying out your %TEMP% directory and also try running the installer as Administrator (Right click -> Run as admin)

I have tried that already 3 times. Same thing. It extracts the files (supposedly) and then stops. I can watch the process stop in Process Explorer. I have also tried deleting the Mozzila folder in C:/Programs and trying the install again with no success, and the Mozilla folder was not recreated. I have also tried turning off the Windows Firewall, Norton Anti-Virus, and Spyhunter but the results are the same, Firefox simply will not install.

Many thank Moses. That did the trick.
