Um, use Firefox on Linux?
As far as I know, it doesn't execute any code, but is a check
list of things to do. E.g.:
Check Windows
To determine which version of Microsoft Windows you are running:
1. On the taskbar at the bottom of your screen, click Start, and
then click Run.
2. In the Run dialog box, type: winver.
NOTE: If you're using Windows Vista, type winver into the Search
box.
3. Click OK.
A dialog box displays the version that you are running.
