Tried to download Firefox 4.0. Window where I drag icon to applications folder has a line and a circle over the Firefox. when I attempt to drag it to the folder, it says there is a newer version already there and do I want to replace it. When I replaced it with your new download a window came up that said I don't have the proper architecture to run this. I am using Mac 10.5.8. Please fix this! I'm in the middle of planning an art exhibit and need my Firefox!!!!

Firefox 4 requires an Intel Mac. You can get Firefox 3.6 from http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all-older.html

There is a third party version of Firefox that runs on OS X 10.4/10.5 and PPC Macs, for details see http://www.floodgap.com/software/tenfourfox
