Isisombululo esikhethiwe

Firefox 4 versions and later do not run on a PowerPC Mac (like yours) and require at least OS X 10.5 and an Intel Mac.

The latest supported version for your os is 3.6.27 , you can download it from:

http://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/all-older.html

1. Download a 3.6.27 copy of the Firefox from the above link

2. Trash the current Firefox application to do a clean (re-)install.

3. Install the new version that you have downloaded(3.6.27)

Your profile data is stored elsewhere in the Firefox Profile Folder, so probably you won't lose your bookmarks or other personal data, if you don't already totally uninstall firefox(user data and settings like bookmarks, extensions, etc. located here: ~Library/Application Support/Firefox so you must uninstall it separately, to totally uninstall firefox).
