I have OS 10.8 and my firefox won't update. Says my system is unsupported.

I have been unable to update my firefox for ages. When I click to update, it just shows a never ending update. I am running an extremely old version (5.0.1) because when I try to install something newer, I get a not compatible message. My operating system although old, shows on the mozilla site as still being supported. Don't know what to do. I've tried suggestions written in this forum, but none work.

Make sure, your using MAX OS X 10.8, your SYSTEM Details show your running MAC OS X 10.5

You need MAC OS X 10.6 atleast to run the latest version of FIREFOX

If your Running MAC OS X 10.8, Download the firefox and install it freshly
