Installed the default, so SuperServer.
The .cpl is in the system directory, but nothing happened when it's
clicked on, and it was not showing in the control panel.

Did I say 1.5.0 ;)
Firebird-1.5.1.4481-Win32.exe is the current one I am seeing - and
that's the one I used on site.
As I said it's not a problem, I was just surprised that it did not
appear. I had to manually delete the old Interbase .cpl which is when I
found the Firebird one. If other people say it's fine, then it's just me :)
