To get Firefox 2 back you need to download an old setup for it and install from the scratch, removing the program folder and the profiles one.

FireFox 2.0.0.14   and FireFox 3.0 are available at MySharedFiles (http://home.comcast.net/~mysharedfiles/) in the Browsers  (http://mysharedfiles.no-ip.org/Browsers/)Folder

Hope that helps.  :)

For other older versions of Firefox you can also go  HERE.  (http://www.oldapps.com/firefox.htm)  ;)

Or, get it directly from Mozilla (http://releases.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/firefox/releases/).

Hi xenopii,

If you are on an earlier OS than XP (98 SE, ME) firefox 3.0 is no longer for you, these Operational Systems are obsolete from fx 3.0 henceon, but you can use Flock which will run on older Operational Systems,

Will Firefox 3.0 work ok on W2K?  What is Flock?
