Chosen solution

Firefox 2.0.0.20 to be exact.

If you must use this old version then see ftp://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/firefox/releases/2.0.0.20/win32/ and choose your language.

The last version of Firefox to run on Windows ME was the Firefox 2.0.x series. Since version 3.0.x, Windows ME is not compatible. It is not suggested that you run an old, unsupported, non-updated version of Firefox for your own safety and security.

I doubt that you will find any currently updated, secure browser compatible with Windows ME. There are on-line links for Firefox for Windows ME, many of them foreign sites, but I would not trust them; you do not know what you may be getting.
