Mozilla 0.8 really shines doesn't it; however, there is this one annoying
problem that makes me want to pluck my gray hairs out - all three of them.
The problem is either the starting of Mozilla on WinMe systems or the way it
closes.
On my system, after a reboot, Mozilla will start properly and really shine.
Then comes that time when your finished with the browser and either click
the X at the right top corner of the window or you select File\Exit and
there you are. Mozilla is gone, finished, not working any more - completely
out of memory and etc.
I get up from my system, go and make a good cup of coffee and have a piece
of red velvet cake. I return to my computer wanting a double portion of
Mozilla 0.8 and click on the icon that represent that piece of code. I hear
the moving parts of my 40 gig hard drive as it execute the Mozilla binary.
My pointer on the screen indicates that things are happening and that I
should see a browser on the screen in seconds. Guess what! Nothing.
Nothing at all. It list in the Task Manager as loaded but no browser is to
be found.
I have yet to find a build that resolves this problem in Mozilla. I believe
it is indigenous to WinME operating system only. I said all of that to say
this - Mozilla is still hanging. It either isn't shutting down properly or
not loading up correctly. How do I feel about Mozilla? GREAT! I have
confidence it's going to be really great soon.
