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

The latest supported version for your os is 3.6.25 , your can downoload from here:

Firefox 3.6 System Requirements

Firefox 9 System Requirements

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