I need to download Firefox 3.5 for OS-X 10.5 on PowerPC to run CoolIris.

I have OS-X 10.5 on my G5 Mac, the latest version it will support. I had a hard drive disaster and am rebuilding my system. CoolIris is my plug-in of choice for Fireox.

But: Mac OS X 10.4 and Mac PowerPC are not supported on Cooliris v1.11.1+

I find the appropriate version, but: Version 1.11 Works with: Firefox 3.0a1 - 3.5.*

So, I need to download version 3.5 of Firefox to get CoolIris running again. But, I can't see a place to download older versions.

Apparently not any longer. this link takes me to a page telling me 3.6 isout of date and then that the newone isn't compatible with my operating system. but i think it means with my PowerPC processors.

Surely there are copies of 3.6 in the server somewhere. i know i'm behind,but i'm not a Luddite. it's just that this PowerPC mac still works great for the stuff i do.

jcarter2a, there is links on http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all-older.html for 3.6.28 if you look further down the page. The Firefox 3.6.28 was the last security update for 3.6 and is now EOL.

Of course! Under English, not under United States.

Slow to catch on
