Here are some measures that need to be considered while installing the 1.5.0.3 version browser:
1. Firefox 1.5.0.3 may hang when closing PDF file in older versions of the Adobe Acrobat Reader plugin.

2. Older versions of Adblock may cause the Clear Private Data confirmation window to appear when Firefox 1.5.0.3 opens.

3. After runing the Firefox 1.5.0.3 installer, the extension compatibility and update wizard does not appear, so you need go to the Extension Manager and manually check for any updates.
