Mozilla Dropping Firefox Support For Older Windows Versions
Mozilla is considering stopping support for Windows 2000 and Windows XP without Service Pack 3 when the new Firefox 3.5 is released in 2010, it was discussed about on their forum by developers and Mozilla executives, this includes Firefox's director. Mozilla is currently working on Gecko 1.9.1, Gecko is the engine that powers Firefox 3.5. Mozilla hopes to release Firefox at some point in the second quarter.

@ Mathew : I am running windows vista business, its stupid you get more programs with home premium.
@Renderedcook: Actually the majority of people are on XP, also business'es said they wont be upgrading to windows 7 anytime soon. at the moment XP is used more then vista + windows 7 combined.

Are you saying that the version that Mozilla is working on is 3.5? The very latest version at the moment is 3.0.8 as I get updated when they come out.
Kind of amazing considering that a few companies are still offering Windows XP with their new computers.
