Thanks for downloading Firefox, but this version is out of date. Unfortunately your computer's operating system isn't compatible with the most current Firefox learn more, but you are encouraged to download the most recent version that is compatible instead. I have Firefox 3.6.25 and it was saying something about Firefox 4 yet it was just a update for Firefox 3.

Ah they have been doing that with the various 3.6.* whats new page for a while now.

Here is the page for Firefox 9.0.1 (was just a quick chemspill release for 9.0) http://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/9.0.1/whatsnew/

Yeah but I'm just wondering should I ignore that or what? I don't really wish to upgrade just yet to Firefox 9. My main problem with not wanting to upgrade is I am on a Windows XP Professional Service Pack 3 and worried it wont work with it.

I believe it's that one. I had to go back through my history. The line that was there that I copied seems to be gone from that one but it's the title of the page I remember.
