Firefox will not auto-update to a newer version. auto-update is to check for newer versions of extensions and themes that you have installed.

when you install a newer version of firefox it should replace the older version. since the default file location for all versions of firefox is the same (Crogram Files/Mozilla Firefox) the old version is overwritten when a newer one is installed.

i am actually disapointed with 1.0 at the moment. not because of anything to do with the program itself, but because of how many themes and extensions that i had downloaded are not compatable with 1.0. i'll have to wait for the updates, but right now i am really missing my Pheonity and ScribblesBrite themes and several of my favorite extensions like Stop-or-Reload Button and Super Drag&Go. I'm actually thinking about redownloading 1.0PR if Super Drag&Go is not updated within the next few days. at least my #1 favorite, Tabbrowser Extensions, is still compatable. (Note: Some of the extensions I mentioned are not available on updates.mozilla.org, but instead on mozdev.org)
