Found the following with a strace.
The init.d directory does exist but only has one file, a README file.
As I've already uninstalled the program and deleted all the directories,
I would have thought that everything would reinstall.
Below 2 of many entries that came up with the strace.
access("/home/kevin/.mozilla/firefox/init.d/K*", X_OK) = -1 ENOENT (No
such file or directory)
access("/usr/lib/firefox-1.0.7/init.d/K*", X_OK) = -1 ENOENT (No such
file or directory)
I bow to higher knowlage as I do not yet know enough about LINUX and ask
for help.
many thanks
kevin

Try 'strace firefox' from a terminal window, then scroll backwards
through the output to see if there is a failing system call that
makes any sense.
