My biggest fear is that, as I do not know how to compile and am really a mouse tickler, I do not want to install a later version of Mozilla or OOo, find it doesn't work and then be unable to point and click to un-install it so my system is left as though I had never installed the 'offending' app. Mozilla and OOo are the two most crucial at the moment as they are helping me look for and apply for employment, and I will not have that help destroyed.
Mozilla and OOo are 'static' installations. They do not require lib's off your system. ...
