Firefox automatically downloaded 3.6.18 and I lost my Tabs. Then I downloaded 4 then 5 and hate them both. In 5 my mouse is very jerky. 3.6.17 works best for me and I want to go back to it. HELP how do I go back? Thx,

For security reasons, it would be better to use 3.6.18 and fix the issue with your tabs.

Can you explain what you mean about losing your tabs -- did your Bookmarks Toolbar become blank or disappear completely?

Before making further changes, I recommend backing up your Firefox settings in case something goes wrong. See Backing up your information. (You can copy your entire Firefox profile folder somewhere outside of the Mozilla folder.)

You can download the Firefox 3.6.18 installer here: http://www.mozilla.com/firefox/all-older
