Hey, that's a good question. Even though there is a Windows version it certainly shouldn't be here.

:confused: OK then, where does it go?  I just figured that it is an application, and an alternative to a popular M$ application, Internet Exploder... Since there is a windows version, I suppose it dosn't go in the Linux forum, the Lounge maybe?   :confused:

I would probably have picked the lounge but I see your thought process. Either way it's no big deal, we all got the message.

My first impression of Mozilla 1.21 is:

Stick with the beta.

I went to a simple ftp site, and all Mozilla did was bring up a black screen.  Tried again in Konqueror, and it worked.  I don't know whats going on with the Mozilla team, but if you have 1.2beta, maybe it would be best not to upgrade just yet.

Further investigation...it was an RPM I was downloading, right clicking the link and doing save target as worked.  Probably another case of .rpm ambiguity (for those who don't know, the extension .rpm is used for Redhat Pacakge Manager files, and embedded Real Media files).

Did you delete your old profile directories? Sometimes they change things and the old settings are not compatible with the new browser.

hehehe, if all moz 1.2.1 is is 1.2.0 with a bug fix, it kicks major ass. like my main computer doesn't crash/*i though it was an X window system problem, it was a redhacked browser*/ and the fonts are fucking awsome.. the defualt font is a bit wonky for the menus, but your in it for what the sites look like under it. just remember to install the xft version. trust me, its awsome, i can take screenshots if anybodys interested

I think I'll stick with 1.1 for the time being, although I mostly use Chimera for browsing

I'll stick with 1.1 until the new one is free of most of the bugs, and in 100% Dutch, like 1.1 is now

I'm using 1,2b on Windoze, and Chimera on Jaguar. Chimera rules.
I can't download 1.2.1 for Win anyway. Says that the file can't be found at the site...
