Need firefox for 64 bit Slackware or source to compile it.

I'm running Slackware 64 bit system. A program compiled on a 32 bit system will not run on a 64 bit system. I know this as I've had to recompile all the programs I've written. Where can I get the 64 bit Firefox or the source so I can compile it on my system? Right now I'm using Firefox 3.6.3 and would like to get up to a current version.

You can download a pre-compiled Firefox for 64-bit Linux here, as a tar.gz archive for US English or for the language of your choice.
