how do I download version 4? I cannot use v5 because not compatible with slingbox
how can I download version 4? I upgraded to version 5 but it is not compatible with version 5. So I either go back to version 4 or find another provider.

Try the compatability reporter, it helps with some extensions. Firefox policy apparently is that although you have been using firefox 4 until now it should not be easy for you to go back to it as it is now unsupported, and so you should use Firefox 3,6 or 5. I can not openly directly post about going back to Firefox4 it is not official policy.
I do agree with not using firefox 4, in most circumstances. I have Fx4 on my computer, but only for comparison purposes, however I feel some users are going to be desperate to go back if it worked with their extensions or websites and the other versions do not.
