Hi , i want to use an old version of firefox ( 3.5 from 2009) on my mac , i installed the dmg file from - https://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/firefox/releases/3.5.5/mac/id/

After doing that , i get this prompt (please find attached)

Is there a way i can bypass this and continue using the old version??

Why would you want to use a Firefox version from thirteen years ago ?

It is likely that such an old version uses library versions that are no longer available in macOS 10.15.
