I set up Thunderbird to download automatically, it would do that but would come up with an error message saying to close all programs. After clicking OK Thunderbird would try and install the new software again, with the same error message this would happen up to six times and eventually after starting thunderbird it would go away.  I then tried to remove Thuberbird 2.0.0.6 went into the control panel, add remove programs and tnen click on Mozilla Thunderbird 2.0.0.6 then click on remove, nothing happened.

Mozilla Thunderbird 2.0.0.6 which I am currently using will not open.
