When I use Firefox to browse the web or go to sites that I need to be secure, I get a message to update to the latest Firefox version. I tried to do that, but got the message that my computer operating system could not be updated to the new Firefox version. I am wondering how long I will be able to use my present version. also will this version continue to be secure?

As of Firefox 4.0 and newer one needs both OSX 10.5+ and Intel hardware.

Firefox 3.6.* from Mozilla is the last to work on PPC. http://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/all-older.html (Firefox 3.6.25 was released recently at same time as 9.0).

Since you have a PPC there is a third-party option for Firefox 9.0 at http://www.floodgap.com/software/tenfourfox/ however do note http://code.google.com/p/tenfourfox/wiki/PluginsNoLongerSupported if you use this build.

Support for Firefox 3.6.* is likely to finally end (was originally to be shortly after Fx 4.0) sometime in April as this is when a new ESR version (Firefox 10.0) for Enterprise users will be supported. It will be too current for you short of using a third-party or your own build.
