I don't think I one either but this talk of FF3, FF4 and FF5 has
got me confused.
On Windows 7, FF4 was replaced within a week by FF5 and FF5 lasted
about 2 months. I now have FF6.0.2 on my machine. There is no
mention of which build of Gecko this is. Are you saying that there
is only version 4 and 5 of FF on Mac?
No, what I mean is FF 4& 5 were the 2 offered for testing on both
Windows and Mac via Adobe Browser Labs.
I don't understand why. FF4 only got to FF4.01 for general users.
I'm still on version 3.6 on
my own machine because the upgrade to FF4 was incompatible with
Firebug and I didn't want to compromise my development process.
Firebug is like a lifeline! lol. Not sure how versions 5& 6 are with
Firebug. Know anything?

There is a way to have multiple profiles of Firefox but when I did that
to keep FF4, I broke the task-bar icon for FF5. This has corrected
itself by allowing FF5 to auto update to FF6. I do know that using
profiles is not as easy on Mac.
In my opinion, there is no difference between the rendering of FF4, FF5
and FF6.
Depending on how many machines you have, you can always download old
versions of FF (copy and paste the link into a browser or it loads in
Windows Explorer on Windows).
ftp://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/firefox/releases/
I have never used Firebug (I use the web developers toolbar) but some
versions have support for FF6.

Please don't ask me why it has Firefox 9 (nightly).
