I performed an update this morning which included the newest kernel and firefox. Now firefox will not launch.

Can anyone help me?

Hello:
Are you getting an error?
Try opening a terminal and type firefox and see if it spits out anything?

I tried. I opened a terminal and typed firefox. Nothing.
I tried the gnome menu and the cursor goes into busy mode for a while then nothing. No error messages.

Hello:
You could try opening / starting it in safe-mode to see if that will help?

Well, I removed 1.5.0.7 via yum, then installed 1.5.0.7 via yum and it now works. I also still have all my extensions.

Thanks for the help.
