Instructions for Firefox 3

After discovering that the old instructions didn't work for me with Firefox 3, I went ahead and added a new set of steps for manual updating. This may not be the best way to do it; I'm not a Firefox dev, so I'm not really sure. (Edit boldly, right?) My questions would be the following:

  • How do you invoke the updater without running Firefox? Is it as simple as just running updater.exe after placing the MAR in the right place?
  • Does this method of manual updating have any side effects which should be noted?
  • Are any side effects bad enough that we should remove these instructions altogether?
