Works fine here in a current Firefox.

FF 2.0 is ancient, and I'm unsurprised at problems.  There have been
major architectural changes, particularly between FF 2.X and FF 3,
including changes in the JavaScript engine implemented in the Gecko
rendering engine.

If you are still running Win98, you might want to play with KernelEx.
It's an open source package that adds enough of the Win32 API to allow
various older 32 bit Windows apps to run.  It hasn't been maintained
in a while, but what's there works.   The last maintenance release
from 2011 advertised the ability to run FF 8.0.  (A contact on another
list uses it, and runs Opera 11 on Win98 when he wants to browse the
web.)

KernelEx is at http://kernelex.sourceforge.net/.  You might try
installing it, and a later Firefox, and seeing if you still encounter
the problems.
