Thank you for taking the time to report this issue and helping to make Ubuntu better.

can you give the output of:

sudo apt-get update; sudo apt-get install firefox

This will install firefox 3.5 for you. If you want firefox 3.0 then run:

sudo apt-get update; sudo apt-get install firefox-3.0

Can you help with this problem?
