That code does not use the Firefox trademark, and therefore this whole discussion about trademark licensing is moot. I'm pretty sure that you can compile the ActiveX control against XULRunner and use it just fine, without any mention of Firefox at all. The important point here is that if you use "firefox" branding anywhere, you need to get a trademark license. If you just use the code without the Mozilla-owned trademarks (Firefox, Thunderbird, Mozilla *), you can do pretty much anything you want. --BDS _______________________________________________ legal mailing list [email protected] https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/legal
