Oof the version will be rather old. Firefox since 79.0 and later has required Mac OS X 10.12 at minimum to run. Firefox 78.15.0esr was the last to support the old EOL Mac OS X 10.9, 10.10, 10.11

Even a version like 52.9.0esr required Mac OS X 10.9 at minimum. https://www.mozilla.org/firefox/52.9.0/system-requirements/

For the ancient Mac OS X 10.6.8 the rather old and vulnerable Firefox 45.9.0esr (Released back on April 19, 2017) may be the most current (with security updates) you can run. Firefox 48.0 and later required Mac OS X 10.9 at minimum then.

Hmm it says Fx 49.0 and later requires Mac OS X 10.9 or later when according to https://www.mozilla.org/firefox/48.0/system-requirements/ it was Fx 48.0 and later.

Close enough for an old article I guess.

It has never been clear to me whether it was 48 or 49
