[desktop-discuss] Re: [osol-discuss] Is Mozilla still available in Nevada (snv_53+)?

[Alan Coopersmith]

Nope - Mozilla was removed around snv_45 or so once Firefox &
Thunderbird had replaced it.   Since the Mozilla community has
stopped working on it, Sun is following the community's lead.

When I fire it up, the system just sits there for a while until Firefox decides that it might start. And after a while, the GNOME desktop locks up and becomes unresponsive, unless I kill Firefox! Which sometimes I'm not even able to do from the GUI, becuase the task bar is frozen! This usually happens while listening to Pandora (Macromedia/Flash laden site).
