Firefox download links:
Mac http://releases.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/firefox/releases/4.0/mac/en-US/Firefox%204.0.dmg
Going to test this as soon as I get home on My Windows machine.
On my RHEL6 laptop however I couldn't just unpack the linux version and run the ./firefox. I also couldn't find the installation guide. Nonetheless, it complains about this;
./firefox-bin: error while loading shared libraries: libgtk-x11-2.0.so.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
But sudo yum install gtk2 gives:
Package gtk2-2.18.9-4.el6.x86_64 already installed and latest version.
And after a 'find /' I found the file here:
cat ~/find.all | grep libgtk-x11-2.0.so.0 /usr/lib64/libgtk-x11-2.0.so.0.1800.9 /usr/lib64/libgtk-x11-2.0.so.0
How do I proceed? - Did not find anything online quick enough that would help me. The other requirements I could also find in my system.. I tried to run ./firefox-bin which complained about libxul.so which I also have in my system. I tried to run it in a sudo, no difference.
If anybody reads this and has some ideas or so - please let me know :)

So I tried Google Chrome instead (haven't tried this before) and wow, compared to Firefox 3.6.x which is the default one on RHEL6 it is really fast!
This is the link I used to install it and it worked perfectly:
