What is Mozilla?
Mozilla is a project to continue Netscape Communicator as an open project. The project is maintained by employees of Netscape (now a division of AOL), RedHat, some other companies, as well as contributors from the community.

The only one you are punishing by not going to a site is yourself. The webmaster is probably relieved that you are using his bandwidth.

Exactly. You check it in one browser. That one browser should be the one your users use. In my case, that means IE.Originally posted by Garann Rose Means:
That's the point of pushing standards compliance - so no one has to check their site in three different browsers anymore.

I like Mozilla. Once you figure out how to use the options you can control all sorts of nasty things like pop-ups.Originally posted by Gregg Bolinger:
I simply wanted to know which browsers out of Moz and Opera and possibly netscape do people use and like?
