Mozilla Firebird is smaller, faster and it looks better than the Mozilla browser. > The Original Mozilla is the best - best features etc What features are you referring to? To be honest, I can't really see a difference feature-wise. |

And we know how badly NS6 went.. :-( Firebird is a new browser built from scratch :-) > What features are you referring to? To be honest, I > can't really see a difference feature-wise. Firebird has a popup stopper, I've not seen that in Mozilla (Although admittedly I havent used Mozilla enough to find out if its blocking them or not). Im sure there's some sort of a features comparison page on Mozilla.org? |

I use Firebird for forums, with cookies enabled. Mozilla for all other web browsing with cookies being turfed out at the end of the session. |

What on earth for??! Isn't that what Firebird is all about - a browser without all the extras one does not use or need?? I could be wrong but I thought that is why it is only half the download and install size of its big brother . . . . |

| 190360 | 2003-11-11 01:55:00 | Well you never mentioned download size, only the installation stuff :-P If I was going to stick with just one, at the moment it would be Mozilla due to its tight integration with the mail client. |

| 190361 | 2003-11-11 04:44:00 | I use Outlook for Email anyway, but i keep the Mozilla Mail Installed Anyway, because with todays 120gb Hard Drives, one does not need to delete anything | ntddevsys (987) | ||
