   The correct way to find the location of Thunderbird (or Firefox) is to   
   launch the Application and then go to:   
      
   Help >> "More Trouble Shooting Information"   
      
   Then look for something like in this image:

   This method works in Ubuntu and Windoze. You might need to enable Menu   
   bar because it is hidden by default. To enable it, right-click on Menu   
   Bar location at the top of the screen and select Menu Bar.   
      
   There are newsgroups for Thunderbird/Firefox which you could use to ask   
   questions about Thunderbird or Firefox.   
      
   alt.comp.software.thunderbird   
   alt.comp.software.firefox
