Hi Michelle,

    I'm not quite sure about your question. Mozilla and Firefox are
different products from mozilla.org. Mozilla is a suite including
browser, mail client, HTML editor... Firefox is only a browser. If you
want to use mozilla, you can get it from here:
http://www.sun.com/software/solaris/browser/getmozilla17.xml. It's for
Solaris 8/9.

    As Firefox/Thunderbird becomes more and more popular in recent
years, we highly recommend that you can use Firefox/Thunderbird to
replace your netscape (Thunderbird is the new mail client from
mozilla.org).
