I get a message from Firefox that ebrary reader for windows is not compatible with version 4.0.1 of Firefox. Can I revert to an earlier version of Firefox that is compatible with ebrary Reader for Windows? I am using Windows XP professional.

See: http://support.ebrary.com/?p=443

To revert to the previous secure version which is 3.6.17, please do the following:

  1. Go to Download Firefox v3.6.17 and download it to the desktop.

  2. Then go to Add/Remove Programs, scroll down to "Mozilla Firefox" and remove it, choosing to keep your bookmarks, customizations etc., (don't checkmark the box).

  3. Then reboot and delete the folder called "Mozilla Firefox" at this location: C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox

  4. Finally run the installation file you downloaded to the desktop earlier.

Your bookmarks, customizations etc., are maintained in a different location and will become available to you again once you complete the installation.

After you complete the installation, please go to the Plugins Check page and update where necessary.
