Mozilla continues to work on further improvements for its flagship product: the free and open source browser, Firefox. Its many features include enabling the simultaneous browsing of multiple pages with its tab system, supporting most existing web standards, and offering a personalized experience with extensions, plugins, and themes created. I have Mac 10.7.5 and I can't get a newer OS and I need to know which version of Firefox I need to download. Their old directory of files is extremely hard to navigate and I don't know which one I need.
I have an old white Macbook 2008 or so laptop with Leopard that still runs (bless its heart) but can't really run any recent browsers. I'd like to have it for my elderly mother to go online and do some very basic browsing.
Is there something that will run with an older machine and still load newer pages? Firefox and Safari are not loading pages in any usable way.
Sorry I don't have any the specs here - would have to go boot it up and get them. So it's more of a general browser question. However, what I do recall is that in terms of resources, it can run leopard, possibly snow leopard although that was questionable. I do not believe it's recommended to run Lion or Mountain Lion on this machine. So it's probably as far as it will go.

Would prefer not to put any money into it, just wondering if there was a band-aid solution. It's still a decent little box; I sometimes use it for audio captures and general computing tasks when the MB Pro is tied up with an encode.
Thank you
