User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 5.2; Win64; x64; rv:36.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/36.0
Build ID: 20141124030207
Steps to reproduce:
In version 36, I could get the 64 bit version to work with WinXP 64 by unzipping the zip file. As of version 37, this trick no longer works and I get messages saying it is not a Win32 program when I try to run it. Version 36 -64 still works

AFAIK, this is by design, See Bug 1094013

I am depressed about it too... I finally got Windows XP Pro 64bit.... mid last month off of eBay... I really don't like the newer OS(s) .... Windows 7 is barely tolerable...
I hope some one will make it again so XP64 and Firefox64 will be available some day ;^_^;
