On windows, if you use a previous version of Mozilla, and decide to upgrade to version 1.4, there is only one way to do it safely: install into a new directory. You can leave your older one installed, but don’t think you can install on top of it, or even (gasp), uninstall it and install the new on in the same directory. If you do that Mozilla will not start. On my system it kept complaining that a previous installation was not finished and would I please reboot. You could reboot forever and not get past that message.
Searching the Mozilla Bugzilla reveals the developers berating users for not installing into a new folder. Shame on you user for not having the foresight and psychic ability to realize that 1.4 needs a brand new directory.
