its up know, and yes, thats why they recalled and rereleased it, talk about a bug fix, too bad microsoft doesn't recall all their shit and fix it, FOR FREE. then agian, even with competent bug fixers/re-programers, it would be a while till they fixed it

I was about to type mozilla.org into my browser and then I realized I could just click the Mozilla logo      

Thanks for the heads up.

Edit: Are they on dialup?! Jeez it's going slow. Is there anywhere else I can download it?

I think it has more to do with red tape:

Coder: We found this bug.... it sux... May I Fix it?  I know how....
$PHB: No.  I would have to write a report about why we should fix it for free when it will be better for the bottom line if we sell the bug-fix as a new version....

re: why's this topic in 'applications', it is where all threads should get started if they are about applications. unless they are mac specific, or *nix specific applications, then they should go in here. that's my opinion anyway. until the alternative OSs section get's a *NIX applications and *NIX in the News section, then that's the way i think it should be.

as for mozilla. i think i'll stick to phoenix, although they've been stuck at version 0.4 for an awfully long time i think!

The only problem we have with Mozilla being in "Applications" is that it is in "All Things Microsoft"->"Applications".  Mozilla is not a Microsoft application although there is a version that runs under the Microsoft operating systems. There are versions that run under several other operating systems equally. But as I said, it isn't very high on the "big deal meter". I don't think the answer is to create a separate applications forum for every OS either. Maybe just move "Applications" out of the Microsoft category.
Someone please remove this account. Thanks...

it should really be in the microsoft forum considering the description says "a place to talk about IIS, Office," and its filled with thread about windows applications. Isnt it supposed to be more of a forum for microsoft programs like office, IIS, and other non-windows-integrated microsoft applications?

it was meant to be that a year ago. haven't you noticed that many people talk about non microsoft applications on here, and many people do not talk about microsoft applications? there is nothing stopping you talking about office and so on in this thread, just now you're allowed to talk about mozilla and other applications too.

Just downloaded Moz 1.2 RH8 RPMs.

Very nice, although the Orbit theme I have doesn't work in the new version.  Oh well.

edit: nevermind, I just downloaded the updated version for 1.2.
