145178 2003-05-17 12:52:00 The great people over at Mozilla (mozilla.org) have released Mozilla Firebird (formerly Phoenix) over here (http:) it is a huge improvement over the 0.5 release in my opinion. They recommend that you wipe out your old profile prior to installing this release. As you should do anyway.

Also remember to check out www.texturizer.net for handy tips on Mozilla Firebird and also lots of themes and extensions for it.

145179 2003-05-18 00:01:00 Kudos to the Mozilla Firebird team for this great release. I just wish they would fix the way tabs open to be more like Galeon (Tabs open next to the current one rather than at the end of the tab bar).

I've also been trying out their mail client, Mozilla Thunderbird and I'm pleasently suprised. It still has bugs here and there and it still has components that need removing, but its going to be just as good as Mozilla Firebird is now, someday :).

Id say its worth the download.. not bad for 6 1/2 megs on Win32.. Downloading the Tarball files now :-)
