I have an iMac G5 running OSX 10.5.8. Is there a way to get an older version of Firefox that is compatible with this machine and OS?

The G5 is a Power PC

Firefox 3.6.x is the last available from Mozilla for PPC Macs.

For older Macs that aren't supported in Firefox 4+ versions, try TenFourFox for PowerPC's running Mac 10.4.11 & 10.5.8 .
