Re: Obtaining Accessible Firefox

Agreed. I just recently switched to Chrome myself. As soon as I figure
out how to synchronize bookmarks with other browsers, I'm switching
over to it as my primary browser. I'd switch over completely but
occasionally switch to IE for certain tasks. Does anyone know of any
CAPTCHA reading services for Chrome?--Joe

There is a Mozilla page, perhaps more than one, where you can get old
versions.
Here is a page for Firefox 56. I don't know what -eme free means. The
Windows versions come in pairs, one says -eme free and the other just
says
the version. They are both links. There are 32 and 64 bit versions.

Here is a Mozilla site giving information about the ESR version. A
download
link is on the page. Above the link there is a question that is worded
something like :Where can I download the ESR version?" I haven't
specified
a direct download link because There are different English versions such
as
a Brittish english and an American English one.

How and where can I get this ESR version? I am having multiple issues
with
57. I was loving 56 and planning to make it my default browser. I had
the
setting to notify me of update but not to install unless I chose that
option. However It went right ahead and updated and what a headache.
probably part my own fault since I am still a novice FF user.

Version 56 is the last of the old versions. But saying it's the last
accessible version, thus implying that version 57 isn't is a real
oversimplification and is misleading. Some people have had serious
problems
with version 57 and some haven't. Mozilla has said that they are working
on
making future versions of Firefox work without the problems in version
57.
Also, people shouldn't be looking for the last accessible version. they
should be running the ESR (extended release version) during this time
that
Firefox is having problems in the current version or versions.

Hi, to confirm, version 55 is the last accessible version, correct?--Joe

Hi, where can I find an accessible portable version of Firefox? I’m
assuming with such a portable version, I can import a profile that
could include my old Webvisum and other add-ons? Thank you kindly in
advance, and please forgive me if the information has already been
shared.--Joe
