Your post is very difficult to understand.  Are you translating from another (non-English) language? 

What do you mean by "farther version"? 

i have tried all the latest versions of this softwere ...
Well, there's only 1 latest version at any moment in time.  The latest version now is version 12.0.

How many versions did you try?  Why did you try different versions?

Ah, yeah... very difficult to understand, indeed.

There might be something wrong with your previous Firefox installation. Completely remove/uninstall Firefox as well as manually remove the installation folder in the Program Files  and in the profile folder. Since you're using Windows 7, after Firefox uninstallation, go to your windows user profile folder and delete any Firefox remnants there.

It should be at this directory; C:\Users\<username>\AppData\Local\Mozilla\Firefox

coronaadvances,Welcome to the CH forums.A brief lesson on forum etiquette ,In the case of your post above unless it is intended to show empathy with the original poster (ie:misery loves company) then if you are actually seeking help then you should start your own topic. It is bad form to hijack someone elses topic. truenorth
To the O/P .Another option if you desire to have a Mozilla browser you might want to try SeaMonkey which is another of their stable. Or alternatively try a completely different browser.My personal preference is Opera though i do use others. truenorth
