It is not essential that anything is deleted, but I recommend deleting extensions.cache, extensions.ini and extensions.rdf - Deleting those files will force Firefox to rebuild the list of installed extensions and this is useful in case there were any extensions updated when you had Firefox 4 installed.

I also recommend deleting localstore.rdf, that file stores details of toolbar customizations, deleting it will reset the toolbars to the Firefox 3.6 defaults, removing the changes made by Firefox 4.
