I do not remember the number of the firefox version I was running prior to this update. Can you please tell me what version of firefox is compatible with the system I have.

The only downloads I'm seeing on this page are fire fox 3.6.24. I need the last version compatible with imac G4 ppc. I don't have intel. It was at least 2 updates prior to my current version of 3.6.24. What is that version number?

Firefox 3.6.24 is compatible with Power PC Macs, as will 3.6.25 when it is released.

Why do you want to go to a older release when you seem to be using the Firefox 3.6.23 just fine on your PowerMac. The 3.6.24 is the most current update for 3.6.

It is Firefox 4.0 and newer that PPC is no longer supported.

I want to downgrade to a previous version because I am constantly receiving compatibility errors & other errors when trying to load website pages, on almost every website I go to, including familiar ones. I cannot view most videos on sites anymore, including my own on my facebook account. I can't upload photos to facebook either.I have the latest version of flash 10.1.85.3 that will work on my system. I am also getting countless style errors, permission errors & many others, plus fire fox either crashes or freezes most of the time now. All of these problems are fairly recent & the only thing I've changed with this browser is the two security updates fire fox suggested. Do you know what else could be the problem?
