Using Ubuntu 10.04 and running Wine. I would like to watch a video on site that only caters to windows and mac users. How can I find a windows version of firefox? The download page is only giving me the option of a linux version, and it won't play the video at http://www.imatrixsupport.com/.

Did you try to download windows installer from Mozilla downloads and run it with wine loader? I also use Ubuntu 10.04 and wine (1.2.2), and Firefox 5 has been successfully installed in wine.

Could and did! Thanks. Just using Google and trying to use the download was very frustrating.
