Firefox six supports so few plugins and extensions that I needed to get rid of it. Can I get version 5 back.

I am not only disappointed with Firefox 6, but upset that the only other version on your site is 3.6.20 which you say you will not support much longer. I was happy with Firefox 5, then made the mistake of letting your installer change me over to Firefox 6.

Sure, you don't make the extensions etc. But you have broken so many of them that it would be a great ordeal to go to a dozen different places seeking new versions, which probably don't exist. I want Firefox 5 back. How come your website doesn't let me have it?

Perhaps you didn't understand. The number of add-on problems was so severe that I could not live with it.

You did not answer my question about getting an earlier version.

And, I was still waiting for an important add-on to version 5, McAfee site advisor, which I really need.

Asking me to manually check for so many new add-ons is unreasonable, and I just cannot wait for Firefox to find them. So I am back with 3.6.20 and grumpy about it.

SiteAdvisor 3.4 is compatible with Firefox 6.0 by the way.

Well, that's not what 6.0 setup told me. I wish I could trust 6.0, but having had such a bad experience with it, I'll hold off until it is ready. I think it was rushed off the line too soon. I'll stick with 3.6.20 for now. At least it is reliable. I hope Mozilla does not abandon it.
