Pale Moon. Almost identical to Firefox.
http://www.palemoon.org/download-ng.shtml
I had it installed, running with all of my bookmarks in less than five minutes. Not a single hiccup.

Also:

From the Pale Moon Facebook page:
“Since several people have been asking about this: Pale Moon is in no way associated or affiliated with the Mozilla Corporation.”

I like it and will use it. I tried Opera and a couple of others and I didn’t like them.

Pale Moon is almost a Firefox clone.

Everything (bookmarks, themes, and extensions) was imported using the import tool download and are all working.

Thank You!

I’m now running Pale Moon and it was so easy! Thank you for the link!

I also used the migration tool and kept all of my FireFox bookmarks. (I really thought that was going to be a PITA) You guys can find it in this forum thread.

Just downloaded and installed it, took ten minutes total, looks like a good analogue to Firefox. Thanks!

Thank you. I had been using IE but Palemoon was like going home. No more Firefox! Now to find a replacement for Thunderbird.

Thank you Mr. Flagg. I did the switch to Pale Moon. As a long long time user of Firefox, I liked it. But it was probably time to change things up a bit.

Good suggestion.

Fascinating. Pale Moon is the product a Swedish programmer named Markus Straver, who apparently adapts the open source Firefox code himself. The Pale Moon installer executable is digitally signed with his name.

He seems to be supported with donations:
