I use Firefox and am very happy with it and never have any problems. As I don't the cash to get a duo core computer (have a Pent 4) to run Windows7 I wanted to ask "How long will Firefox keep supporting Windows XP?" I note here that the new update for Internet Explorer will not support Windows XP.

No guarantee, but Windows XP will most likely be supported by Mozilla until Microsoft stops supporting XP. Currently, Microsoft "extended" support for XP will end 4/8/2014.
