well I'm crazy and I back up everything, all settings, bookmarks, extensions, etc, remove it, clean the registry with a registry cleaner, reinstall, replace all backup files from the old install.

Now I know why FireFox keeps asking to check for updates this past week. :) The question is, should I? Or should I wait for 2.0.1+ to fix any glitches. hummmmm ..... :mrgreen:
