You can untick the things you don't want. The typical install will bundle all those programs for you just because that is what the market has said is the general need. > It's Mozilla 1.0 plus some mail/news enhancements that will appear > in Moz 1.1.

That is another reason I stopped using IE. The security issues on it. Although a recent alert in both Netscape and Mozilla reported that a properly (or poorly, which ever way you look at it) formed ASP call could in fact force the browser to read a local file.
