Unfortunately, it doesn’t work With WinXP or Win2000.

I have XP and my wife has 2000.

And no.. I’m not upgrading.. Don’t have the money to do so.

Who told you it did not work with XP? I don’t think that is correct. Lots of people still use XP. I highly doubt they would cut them out. I bet 2000 would work too, but that would be more believable that it does not work.

According to Firefox’s site it does work with Windows period. It does not specify an Operating System.

Been running FF4 (RC) with WIN XP for 2 days now. No problems, as of this moment.
For some reason it did check mark the “work off line” box, but this is easily corrected.

Running nicely on XP Pro right now. Make sure you have XP Service Pack 3 installed with the updates. Firefox 4 RC should function on XP.

I have Win XP and have been beta testing Firefox 4 at home. Works great. Win 2000 should be junked as any connection to the internet is putting your system at risk. It isn’t supported by Microsoft and hasn’t been updated in probably 8 years. Not worth using unless not connected to the internet.
