I'm trying to get into my FAFSA account on their website. Their website gives me the message that my browser is incompatible with their site and needs to be updated to the latest. It is and I have double-checked this. What can I do?

The fafsa.gov site does not currently support Firefox newer than version 3.6.x. That is their choice.

You can install Firefox Portable version to use only on that site and use your installed Firefox 5 for everything else. Firefox Portable installs in a separate folder on your hard drive so that it does not interfere with your Firefox 5.0.1 settings or personal information (bookmarks, passwords, etc.). You can also install Firefox Portable on a USB/thumb/pin drive.
