It was recommended that I try Firefox as it's more user friendly to accessing a variety of our sites of interest that aren't being facilitated by Safari. But your info says that the latest Firefox isn't compatible with my iBook..is there an older version that is, as, of course, I can't install any new software from intel onto this product ? I'm stuck with it as a browser & office work it seems, so I want to get the best out of that much!

Firefox 4 requires at least OS X 10.5 and an Intel Mac. There is a third party version of Firefox 4 that runs on OS X 10.4/10.5 and PPC Macs, for details see http://www.floodgap.com/software/tenfourfox

If you prefer, you can get the latest version of Firefox 3.6 from http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all-older.html
