I held off upgrading to Firefox 12 because of another addon. When that was resolved a few weeks ago I noticed that the startup prompt to upgrade to Firefox 12 was replaced with one for Firefox 13. However, my antivirus is only compatible with Firefox 12. The only reference I find to it looks like an FTP site to all releases not having any clear way or instructions to download Firefox 12. I enjoy Firefox and would like to stay with it. But, it is getting harder each month.

I can not help wondering is it worth using an AV program or suite that can not stay compatible with your browser! If you have an official version of XP presumably a free Windows AV program is available.

What is the AV system in use ?
Check with their support site/forum it may now be updated to be compatible with Firefox.

We do not normally recommend using old versions of Firefox, they have security problems. When a new version is released security fixes are included and announced, these then become problems likely to be exploited. You will put at risk your personal data and computer security if you use an old version.

(Unless extreme precautions are taken, such as using on private networks behind sophisticated firewalls, putting it on a Virtual Machine, or having a well rehearsed backup and bare metal restore policy)
