Is version 4.0 now out of beta testing?
Babylon, a supplier of electronic dictionaries, does not support beta versions of Firefox. Sooo, now that there's a 5.0 beta version, does that mean that 4.0 is now the latest, non-beta version of Firefox? If so, than I can nudge Babylon to support it.

Version 5 is the latest non-beta version of Firefox. Version 4 is history.
The current version of Firefox 3.6.x is 3.6.18. Your version is 3.6.13; you need to update. Currently Mozilla will continue support for Firefox 3.6.x for a few more months under their old support policy
The Final Release version of Firefox 4 was released on or about March 22, 2011. There will be no further updates to Firefox 4 for security or other issues unless Mozilla changes the current policy. Under the new quick release program for Firefox, beginning with Firefox 5, support for the previous version (Firefox 4, for example) will end immediately. Firefox 6 and 7 are currently scheduled for release later this year.
The Final Release version of Firefox 5 was released on June 21, 2011. Get Firefox 5 by clicking Help > About
