WIthout another web browser developer to support older legacy systems (like what the developers of TenFourFox did for older Apple PowerMac, PowerPC users still running OS X 10.4.11 and OS X 10.5.8), we will be without an updated and secure web browser for 10.6-10.8 by end of April 2017. Waterfox maybe the only option left to us by the time April 2017 comes along. I am hoping that the lone developer of Waterfox will maintain its support for older OS X versions. It's all over for older legacy OS X secure web browsers, unless. So what will happen in April 2017? Will we have no supported browser to use? I have downloaded the ESR version of Firefox. Thank you MichelPM, you are very knowledgeable. Those of us that are forever tied to older OS X versions will need to to be flexible in our web browser use as, currently, we have really few to no alternatives for web browsers to securely and functionally access the Internet for the foreseeable future. If this ESR 45.x version of Mozilla Firefox disables any FF plugins and extensions you were using, or any plugins you were using with your older Safari,I whole heartedly recommend that you use the two versions of Firefox together, but only use the plugins functional one only when you need to use it. You can use this version now OR you'll have to switch to the ESR version before the end of Dec 2016 as Mozilla won't offer this version after Dec 2016. The ESR version 45 of Mozilla Firefox is still completely secure. Mozilla will issues ESR (security) updates to OS X10.6-10.8 for the version 45 of Firefox, but will not get ANY new web browser functionality feature updates. Mozilla will keep issuing security updates for Firefox in the form of their Firefox ESR web browser (Extended Security Release web browser program, vers.

Ignore all the enteprise and educational info. Can also switch, before end of 2016, to Firefox ESR 45.6 version here.
