I'm taking online classes and my school uses the "angel network" and that network only uses firefox and Internet explorer to access it. But they do not support ver5 on their server/network only 3.6 and in a few days version 4. How can I install 4 on my tablet (android) if only version 5 is available to me in the marketplace?

You can use the Phony extension to pretend to be Firefox 3.6 to websites. Install https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/mobile/addon/phony/ and then in the preferences change the user agent to Desktop Firefox.

Do I download from the marketplace first and then type that in the addon? Or I the browser type that and install from there instead of the marketplace? Sorry I'm a newbie...

From inside Firefox open the preferences from the right pane and then click the extensions (jigsaw puzzle) tab in the extension tab scroll down to the Get Add-ons search bar then type phony then click install.
