Running windows 7. Firefox 4 is what I have and I want to keep it, for my stuff does not run on firefoxf5, it has auto loaded the update to my computer and is waiting to restart to run it. How do I stop this from happening? Others having same issue how do they get FF4 back?

I am not sure how to do this especially on Windows 7.

If you can find and delete the firefox5 install file that should prevent the install.

There is a firefox KB article on this but the official Firefox policy is apparently that users should not revert back to Firefox4

I have made some comments in the articles discussion thread https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Installing%20a%20previous%20version%20of%20Firefox/discuss/1495

If you do wish to downgrade to Firefox 4 then follow instructions at
