There are going to be many dependencies
, so you will need to use yum to install an older firefox (if you are
using the CentOS version).

NSS/NSPR version minimums are going to apply for firefox, so you will
not be able to go back very far.

But that is OK as most firefox upgrades are critical anyway, so browsing
the web with outdated versions will be very dangerous anyway .. hint,
don't do that.
