Where do I find earlier versions (4.x) of Firefox (I'm a developer wanting to test)

Hi! In developing a JavaScript-animated flyout, I found that Firefox 3.x did not handle this smoothly, so I wrote the code to simply pop-up the flyout when the browser was Firefox. I've just tested 5.0 to find that it works smoothly, but I never got to test 4.x versions. I would like to do that now, but I can't find a link to earlier versions, only to download the current. I've updated my script to recognize the version and animate 4.x and above, but I'm only hoping that the 4.x line actually works correctly...

Firefox 4.0.1 is available for download at ftp://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/firefox/releases/4.0.1/win32/en-US/Firefox%20Setup%204.0.1.exe but is not supported. Since Firefox 5 is considered a security update you shouldn't find may users using Firefox 4 anyway.
