I have been on OS X 10.4.11 & unable to upgrade beyond FF 3.5.15. Yesterday I upgraded to OS X 10.5.8 & now I still get rejected when trying to load either a 3.5.26 tor a 4.x upgrade with the message 'My architecture is not compatible'

Firefox 3.6.x is the last available from Mozilla for PPC Macs.

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