I require a 32 bit version of Firefox to process a single instruction in Share Point. Where can I get the 32 bit version of Firefox at any level?

I am trying to utilize a function in SharePoint to permit me to open a library in Explorer mode. The function is available on the Share Point page and when I select the function my IE browser stops working. Unfortunately IE at it's current setup on my system is required for most internal applications. Chrome will not enable most of the functions in the Share Point site so that browser is unusable for my purposes. Upon research the current potential resolution to my problem is to run a 32 bit browser to enable my function. Due to the above mentioned limitations I require a 32 bit version of Firefox but the download only provides a 64 bit version because my system is 64 bit. How can I get a 32 bit version of Firefox?

hi dstibbards, firefox release versions on windows are always 32bit applications so far, so i don't think this will be the problem...

For what OS as Firefox for Windows from www.mozilla.org is only Win32 and will work on 32-bit and 64-bit Windows. Firefox for Mac OSX is a combined 32/64 and There are separate 32-bit and 64-bit versions for Linux.

Where are you downloading Firefox to think it is a 64-bit version?

The WOW64 in a browser useragent on Windows means it is a 32-bit application running of 64-bit Windows.
