Why does it say that the updated version of Firefox (which I am trying to download) is not compatible with my operating system when I have Mac OS X 10.5.8?

Sorry, it's because Firefox 4+ are only compiled for the Intel processors.

There is a separate project for PPC Macs called Ten Four Fox. You might give it a spin when you're tired of 3.6.
