But to do that, you've already chosen mozilla, have downloaded it and
chosen to install it...
My point is: Go to a website that offers links to the various web
browsers. You'll have IE v5.x, Netscape 4.7x, NEtscape 6.1, Opera 5.x,
and mozilla 1.x. To the average user, the higher numbers are better.
mozilla 1.x will likely be the last one they even consider. "It's the
oldest one, right ??"
