I'm having trouble using Firefox 4 with Tor Project software. Please help. Will there be an updated Tor Button add-on for Firefox 4.0 soon? If not, how can I get rid of 4.0 and go to an earlier, but stable Firefox version?

I'm trying to use Tor Project for anonymous browsing. I updated my Firefox to 4.0, but I can't get a Tor Button to download, because it isn't available for Firefox 4.o.

Will it be soon?

If not, how do I go back to an earlier, stable version of Firefox that supports Tor Button browsing?

Thanks much!

See if the "stable" version released on 30 June is compatible with Firefox 5.0. That page doesn't mention which versions of Firefox it is compatible with, a serious oversight, IMO.

Plus, it looks like that developer hasn't updated his AMO page in over a year, which makes it impossible for users of that add-on to get automatic updates as each new version of Firefox is released.
