It sound like fantasy but as a programmer i believe nothing is impossible in Earth.
Latest Firefox 52 ported OS\2 . XP is much newer than OS\2.
I need help from people who have knowledge in :

*Rust Programming language
*Code structure of Gecko/Servo engine
It will be a great help. Please friends , who wanna help me let me know in comment below

Those who wanna say me to upgrade to newer operating system , please don't comment . I bored listening XP is old and XP is dead.

Thanking Everyone,
Yours Sincerely,
Dibya

What about old hardware?
Concerns about security? Maybe the computer is for testing, or user assumes that the browsing experience is not safe.
What about reactOS? A win32 compatible and 100% free Operating System

I remember when Firefox was proud an have available for download FF for many platforms and Operating Systems, most of them just used by very small communities.

IMHO copying Chrome and Apple in the bad things cannot be good, so don't be evil ;)
