Installing Firefox Browser

Postby superplay » January 8th, 2011, 3:07 pm

Hi

I am trying to install firebox beta for android. however if I try to download the file from

http://www.mozilla.com/en-GB/m/beta

on my pc I get the error "Firefox doesn't know how to open this address"

and if I goto the URL on the scroll and select the link the following is shown

"The requested item bout not be found"

Any ideas?

the download link leads to android market. I'm guessing that's why it's pooted.

I tried fennec a while ago and that was pooted so I imagine ff (as fennec is based on it) will also be poop.

You can download the link directly by the Android mobile phone and you cannot open it by the PC. The web programmers see to it that only Android phones can download the file and install it directly. If you don’t have browser for your android, then try Opera first then download the file in the Firefox android market.

MOD EDIT: Links Removed
