How do i rollback to firfox 3.6?
I feel extremely uncomfortable using 4.0 knowing it is as yet incompatible with my Norton 360 toolbar. I would like to rollback to an early version of firefox until Norton Toolbar becomes compatible in May. I've also experienced some crashing.

How do we roll back to previous Firefox? A lot of sites do not support Firefox 4 yet and functionality is limited on those sites in oppose to previous versions.

That worked.
I HATE, HATE the new Firefox 4. It does not work with Norton Identity Protection, it will not allow the Norton toolbar, it crashes every few minutes, it crashes my email every time. Do not upgrade till Firefox fixes these problems. I went to Firefox due to IE crashes. I'm going to be really upset if Firefox does not get fixed. Why would they put out a new version if there are so many problems.
My problem was incompatibility with Kaspersky. The solution above works but I wish Firefox would have worked better with important companies like Kaspersky and Norton's to make sure their browser would WORK before they started encouraging people to upgrade. Irresponsible.
I agree CA!
I've gone back to using microsoft for most of today, before having time to deal with this. Incompatibility with Norton is a deal breaker, and they didn't break it, you did.
As it is, Google has a new app, Google Body, which only works with FF4 and Chrome. So I either do without or migrate to Chrome to get everything I want to work.
Nice GUI and new apps and add on's are nice, but the layout is difficult to decipher and gets cluttered too easily.
Almost totally incomparable w/Norton 360 Premier ver 5.0.0.125. Lost the great functionality I had with FF ver. 3.6
Crashes constantly. This is like using MS Win ME. Tabs disappear, hang up and eats CPU time and uses WAY WAY too much memory.
Adobe reports that I am not connected to the net when opening .PDF. Have to close their popup, open DL manager and click on the doc again to get it.
My bookmarks are in another dimension now (at least I saved them).
I really like FF, but you guys need to do your homework better...I gotta rollback to 3.6 and by the way, the BOLD and italics buttons don't work here either.
Just like cellular ain't as reliable as a landline;a newer release doesn't mean a better product, just more bells and whistles. PLEASE FIX, This was the best browser around.
It's very sad that such a horrible "new version" is being imposed upon us.... with threats that 3.6 will soon not be supported any longer! I tried to install 3.6 (http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all-older.html) on my new laptop and it updated to 4.0 on installation! That's bad! No online banking, loads of pages that won't open, no support for things.... slow slow slowww! No way! Hope this is fixed soon because it used to be the BEST.
Thanks danrooney
They TOOK AWAY that link! Why am I NOT surprised...sigh.
I HATE FireFox 4 because it makes the display window SMALLLLLLER! And I can't FIND a way to roll back. They took away the link.
Does anyone know if there is still a link to the 3.6x version?
"They" didn't take away that link, the clown who posted that link screwed it up.
