Using OS10.4.11. No plans to upgrade system which means I cannot upgrade firefox -- my preferred browser. Does this I should no longer use Firefox? I have newer computers but like to use this machine for certain projects.

Concerned about the future stability of firefox since I cannot and will not upgrade the operating system on this particular Mac computer. Using Firefox 3.6.24 and during a recent firefox update, I was warned 1) couldn't upgrade with current operating system, and, 2) support will end soon. What does this mean? Should I stop using Firefox as my browser? Thank you.

Firefox 3.6.x is the last version of Firefox available from Mozilla for PPC Macs and 10.4. http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all-older.html

For older Macs that aren't supported in Firefox 4+ versions, try TenFourFox for PowerPC's running Mac 10.4.11 & 10.5.8 . http://www.floodgap.com/software/tenfourfox/ http://tenfourfox.blogspot.com/ https://code.google.com/p/tenfourfox/wiki/PluginsNoLongerSupported

Firefox 9.0 and Firefox 3.6.25 were both released on Tuesday 12 - 22, you should have been offered the 3.6.25 security update first. Then after it downloaded and after restarting Firefox to install the update, you would get a message about support ending soon for Firefox 3.6 and a suggestion to install the newest version - as you know that can't be done.
