Many of us still use Snow Leopard: Why are you abandoning us?
There was a message when I checked for up-dates that later this year you will stop up-dates for those running Snow Leopard. Plaese don't do this. El Capitan is horrible on older Macs. I became paranoid when after latest FF up-date Flash player keeps switching itself off and must constantly be re-set to "always active"; are to trying to nudge us to upgrade OSX? Bless you all anyway, Mark.

Mozilla would like to support Mac OSX 10.6, 10.7, 10.8 but it has such low amount of users now days for the amount of resources that is needed to support those OSX versions in supporting and fixing issues.
The Firefox 49.0 (Sept 13) Release is looking to be the first Release to not support OSX 10.6, 10.7, 10.8

You do have an option to still have a version with security updates and that is Firefox 45 ESR. Normally the ESR is intended for Enterprise users in mind and it gets security fixes (mainly the more critical ones) and no features in order to stay stable. It is basically the Firefox 45.0 Release but with security updates.

Firefox 45 ESR will get updates until 45.8.0esr which is same time as Firefox 53.0 Release. The ESR branch normally gets eight updates unless Mozilla extends it for reasons like this.

As for the Flash Player any version that is on blockist is set to click-to play activation due to critical vulnerabilities in the last version and older in list.

Current versions not on list does not get set to click-to play.
Many thanks to all for your help and your time, Mark. P.S. Must bite the bullet and suffer El Crapitan so it seems, blessings, M.
