I downloaded FF4 RC but the FF app --> Applications Folder has a "no" symbol on the FF logo and will not allow me to drag/drop. If I delete old FF and replace with new FF4, when I click open the app I get a warning that FF "will not run on this architecture." But FF download page claims, " Mac OS X 10.5 and above. All Systems & Languages."

It only works on Intel Macs. There is a third-party version that works on PPC Macs, for details see http://www.floodgap.com/software/tenfourfox
