Mac OS X 10.1.5

Power PC G4

Currently running NETSCAPE as my browser. Have all kinds of trouble viewing files with adobe flash player. Can't download latest firefox browser. A help file in the Adobe troubleshooting page tells me to download an older version #9 of Flash and then sent me to your Firefox download page. I did this but the download failed.

Probably time to scrap the Mac and buy a new Computer.

The last version of Firefox that should work on OS X 10.1 is Firefox 1.0.8 available from ftp://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/firefox/releases/1.0.8/mac/en-US/

A couple of other browsers you could try are Camino 0.8.5 or iCab 3.0.5.

I agree that it is probably time to scrap your Mac.

Flash 9 should still be available from Adobe, I don't know why their support sent you to a Firefox download page - Mozilla doesn't host Adobe programs for downloading.
