Tips & Warnings

  • To use Firefox, your computer needs to meet minimum hardware requirements. For Windows, the minimum requirement is a 233 Mhz processor, 64 MB of RAM, 50 MB of free space on your hard drive and Windows 98 or greater. The minimum requirements for a Mac are a PowerPC G3 processor, 128 MB of RAM, 75 MB of space on your hard drive and Mac OS X 10.2.x. If you are using Linux, the minimum requirements are a 233 Mhz processor, 64MB of RAM, 50 MB of available hard drive space and Linux kernel 2.2.14 (with glibc 2.3.2, XFree86-3.3.6, gtk+2.0, fontconfig/xft and libstdc++5).

  • Mozilla recommends a 500 Mhz processor, 256 MB of RAM, 100 MB of free hard drive space and Windows XP for the best Firefox experience on Windows-based computers.

  • If you are going to make a purchase online or submit personal information, look for the 'lock' icon in the Firefox status bar to make sure the Web site you are using is secure.

  • Some of these steps may apply for versions of Firefox other than 2.0.0.2.
