Yes I did , but in Manager (Right click, Choose Remove Program) to remove
Firefox 2 after the failed install. I beleive that did a RemoveProgram, but
whether it uses the one in Scripts or its own version I don't know as it is
obvious from the other thread that Manager is unreliable!

I cannot say what versions of Manager & Scripts I am using until I can get back
in, but they were updated to the latest packages a few days ago when I made a
clean installation! HOWEVER that update was also done using Manager!!
