The Firefox 4.0 betas have already broken support on Windows2000, as of 7/7 or 7/8 on the Nightly's and in 4.0b2 version which is from after that date. That particular problem might be fixed, but officially 4.0 will only support WinXP SP3 and newer versions of Windows. The Firefox 3.6.x versions will maintain support for W2K until that version is put-to-rest next year.
