Firefox 4 requires at least OS x 10.5, you can get Firefox 3.6 from http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all-older.html

but I'd like to be able to revert back and have all my bookmarks intact. I was looking through my disk utilities but am not seeing the solutions. Am I out of luck? Will I just have to reset my bookmarks? thanks

Thanks for the link to the 3.6. Downloaded easily with all bookmarks intact. Seems to be working faster than the origibal as well
