I am trying to upgrade from Firefox version 1.5 on a Windows 98 desktop computer. My system will not accept the Firefox 4.0 upgrade. I downloaded the 3.6.17 upgrade setup.exe and ran it. It unpacked 100% then dsplayed an error message "Program has performed an illegal operation" The Detail button displayed "Setup caused an invalid page fault in module Setup.exe at 017f.0040351e.

You can't run Firefox 3 versions on Windows 98.

Firefox 2.0.0.20 is the last release that runs on the Windows 98 and Windows ME platform.
