Before you downgrade, I'd like to know why you want to go back to 12. Maybe I can help with whatever problem Firefox 13 has.

You can downgrade to 12 by opening a terminal and typing:

su
(enter your admin. password)
pkg_add -r ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/po...x-12.0_1,1.tbz

I think he has the PBI, or is this the package?

If the PBI, you can do this:

% pbi_delete firefox-13.0.1-am64
% fetch
ftp://ftp.pcbsd.org/pub/pbioutgoing/x64/9/www/firefox/archived/firefox-12.0_1-amd64.pbi
% pbi_add firefox-12.0_1-amd64.pbi

thankyou.

although I have a powerful PC, seems to me that firefox 13 is slower than 12, rather, it runs a little jerky.
For example when I click to a menu ('Bookmarks' or other), sometimes it needs some seconds before the menu appears...
