What I truly love about Firefox is the program/extension update feature.
It's great, let's you know what needs to be updated and without any
hassle, you can just download and install. Except when it comes to
updating Firefox itself.

The update works fine. But the release notes for each version of Firefox
always warn you not to install one version on top of another. Does the
handy update tool uninstall Firefox before continuing? No. Does it apply
a patch to make this unnecessary? No. By the time I noticed what was
going on I had about four versions of Firefox listed in "Add/Remove
Programs" and the install was so botched that I couldn't properly
navigate through the options menu. Awesome.
