Firefox and windows 7

[<Rick.Chevalier@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Last night I downloaded and installed Firefox onto a new Windows 7 laptop.  I didn't specify 64-bit so I presume it is the 32 bit version.  Everything seemed to go well and it launched after install just fine.  The problem is after I closed it.  Firefox just disappeared.  I can't find it to open it again.  Not easily anyway.

During the install I chose these options:
Install to c:\Applications\Firefox
Do not create a desktop icon
Place an icon on the quick launch bar

There isn't an icon on the quick launch bar and I can't find it in start -> programs.  I can find the .exe using windows explorer.  The right mouse button doesn't appear to be working so I haven't been able to create a shortcut from that.

All that to ask this.  Did I do something wrong during the install?  I have been watching posts here that implied I shouldn't install into c:\program files because, IIRC, only the administrator would be able to run them.  That's why the c:\applications path.  Am I imagining things?
