Not being observant,  I allowed firefox to update on an XP machine.  The current download is totally unusable for the visually impaired.  How do I eradicate it and get a copy of the old firefox, believe it was 24.8.1 ,  and get it installed?

Try removing it from control panel and then go here for previous versions. I implore you to upgrade your machine as support for Microsoft Windows XP has been terminated. Please, read Windows XP - The Elephant In The Room for more information.

Thanks but upgrading will lose all programs designed for the blind and visually impaired that only work on XP>

You can get the older versions of Firefox from here: Old Apps http://www.oldapps.com/firefox.php

 

You will need to scroll down nearly to the bottom of the page to get it. Look for Firefox 24.0 ESR link.
