Firefox 070108

Sent email informing staff of Firefox upgrade. Included instructions on how to export and import bookmarks, if needed. Next step is to begin tweaking Firefox for public deployment.

One note:
Proxy setting for the browser is set to No Proxy by default. This needs to be changed to auto detect. To do this I had to edit the All.js file. It is located at:
C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\greprefs\all.js

I reviewed the filedef.txt and All.js is 105.fil. I edited the following statement in the 105.fil (All.js) file:
Changed pref("network.proxy.type", 0);
To
pref("network.proxy.type"' 4);
and saved changes to the working directory.
Note 0 = No Proxy and 4 = Auto detect
