Now the upgrade has a later version(3.6.3) of FF than the custom(3.5.4) flash no longer works in my older version but whatever I try and do I cant get the system version to run from my usercode!
It works fine from other users....
Any ideas?

What actually happens when you run the new Firefox (from a console is best) as "I can't get it to run" isn't very descriptive.
/usr/bin/firefox
it just runs and stops leaving a small console window - no errors or anything

What about firefox safe mode - where it disables the plug-ins etc does that work? If not, what happens.
/usr/bin/firefox -safe-mode
that somehow ups and runs 3.5.4!
but /usr/bin/firefox -v says 3.6.3
