I want to download v6, but can only find v7. Browser stats say that most users currently have v6, so this is the version I want to test our website in, but can't find it to download.

I understand you are only using this for testing purposes, but note that Firefox 6 is no longer supported or considered secure. At the moment and for the immediate future the oldest supported version is Firefox 3.6.23 (3.6.24 due soon).

Firefox 4,5, & 6 are now not supported, but Firefox 7 is the standard release, with some users also on Firefox 8,9 and 10.

No doubt you are aware Firefox is now using a revised rapid release cycle, usually resulting in releases of a new version every six weeks !
