Major problem with Firebird installer

Mozilla Firebird installer also has nightly builds. Yesterday, MozillaZine reported a problem with one of those nightlies. When you install Firebird, the installer wipes out your Program Files folder. Not so good. :???:

Ben Goodger wrote in his weblog how to solve this nasty problem.

Note that this isn’t a Mozilla Firebird problem. The FB installer causes this. And besides, if you don’t know what you are doing, you shouldn’t install nightly builds (those builds are made for developpers and testers). As for me, I always use one of the “zip nightlies“. Those are actually quite safe (but not suited for daily surfing though :wink:).
