March 25 2011 I'm on a Mac OS X (power pc) After restarting my computer today. Firefox did not launch. I clicked on the icon, it started to initiate and then stopped before anything happened.

To try to fix the problem, I trashed the application and downloaded a new one. It gave me a message: "The application Firefox cannot be launched -10661."

I retried the download and the second time, the Firefox application icon has been crossed out. That is it has a circle with a slash over it. Same message comes up.

Sorry, Firefox 4 is not available for PowerPC Macs. You can re-install the previous version from here: http://www.firefox.com/all-older.html

Or you can find an unofficial version of Firefox 4 for PowerPC here: http://www.floodgap.com/software/tenfourfox/

Thanks. I've downloaded the older version of (official) Firefox. Now is there a way to stop Firefox from always trying to automatically update?

Firefox 3.6 will not automatically update to Firefox 4 on unsupported systems. We're also working on changes to our web site so that it will not offer or advertise Firefox 4 on computers that aren't compatible with it.

That would be good. TY
