How to go back to an older version of Mozilla FireFox on Ubuntu Natty Narwhal.

I need to connect to my company's vpn using F5 vpn pluggin, it is a web-based vpn client that my company uses for remote connections to their network.

I upgraded my home computer to Ubuntu 11 Natty Narwhal and lost the ability to connect because FireFox 4 has no support for F5 plugin. I was forced then to revert or downgrade my version of FireFox to 3.6, but this was not as simple as I thought.

The code bellow is to be used in any module. It requires cck module to be installed. The advantage of this code is that it allows you to use labels and field definitions done through the cck ui.

Insert code snippet in template.php file.

2. Left-click this triangle and select the "Filters..." menu option.
3. In the resulting popup window, uncheck the ".* resources" filter. Once this has been applied all .* files such as .htaccess will be shown
