One would not use Mozilla for a production deployment, but instead a production enabled version like IBM WebBrowser, or Netscape 7.0. So you need to wait till the end of summer (or whenever) when IBM releases a production version based upon Mozilla 1.0/Netscape 7.0. -- Bill <American Independence's Day is the Fourth of July>
