Note that Firefox 1.5.x has reached its EOL (end of life) and is no
longer being updated by mozilla.com. Users of Firefox 1.5.x are
encouraged to upgrade to Firefox 2.x. Since we use the official Firefox
binaries, these packages should work equally well on earlier Slackware
systems.

Here are the details from the Slackware 12.0 ChangeLog:
