FireFox 8.0.1 does not work with most sites that functioned with no problems under earlier versions. I wish to uninstall and go back to an earlier version.

The more I attempt to use FireFox 8.0.1 the more problems I have. I find considerable interference with the functioning of RoboForm, my bookmarks keep disappearing, many sites that worked fine earlier and work fine with the Opera browser do not work under version 8. Where can I download an earlier version of FireFox

You can uninstall Firefox 8 first before you downgrade to Firefox 7. However, when you uninstall, make sure that you don't choose the option "Remove my Firefox Personal Data".

You can access a list of Previous Versions of Firefox, however, note that Firefox recommends using the latest version since older version may have security and safety vulnerabilities.

P.S: it may be a good idea to create a Restore Point before you uninstall, in case you mess up, in which case you can just restore and start over.
