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.

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?
