How do I get and install an older version of Firefox to run on my Mac 10.4.11?? I mistakenly installed a new version that overrode my older version which isn't suitable for my Mac.

Firefox 4 versions and later do not run on a PowerPC Mac and require at least OS X 10.5 and an Intel Mac.

latest supported version for your os is 3.6.24 you can download from here:

For older Macs that aren't supported in Firefox 4+ versions, try TenFourFox for PowerPC's running Mac 10.4.11 & 10.5.8 .

Problem solved! Thanks for your help. Now, if I could just get Santa to bring me a new Mac, then I wouldn't have that problem. :-)
