I just wanted to add my voice to those who use Mozilla regularly without problem. Of course I'm not a web developer,so I may be missing subtleties. The only problem I've encountered with WinCustomize is the "return to the page you were on before link" after I log in.

I don't know, it just brings back too many bad memories of Black and White to try it.
After years of being called a poster child for everything that's wrong with open source, the Mozilla project has generated some success since the release of 1.0, arguably opening up the world of web browsing again. One of the strangest offshoots I've come across is Ghostzilla which enables you to conjure up a browser (using a special mouse movement) in your current application, regardless of what it is. It's a little hard to explain, but there are animated screenshots on the web site whi
Given the audience, enthusiasts looking for good looking GUIs, it's actually not that surprising. They both have their respective strong suits: Mac has generally had the nicest graphics by default of any OS, so you can get a good looking OS without much effort, while Linux has been skinnable from the ground up from day one, so it's even more skinable than Windows. I would give Linux the edge thought because I think some of Mac voters would chicken out when it came time for pony
One snippet that's stirred the interest of some of the newsgathering sites (I saw it over at OSnews first) is a column by Bill Nichols over at Byte taking stock of some of the less talked about operating systems. Arguably Object Desktop could be listed "Deskop Alternatives" but an interesting read nonetheless. Now where did I put my DESQview/X floppies...
Thanks for the update scratch! I like the project, but I can't seem to find if there's any list of features in the upcoming versions. My final wish for Mozilla would be a permenant tab like Opera.
Yes, by less monolithic I meant I only want the browser, I didn't see that option when I installed 1.0. My mistake. I retract my original comment (or the "monolithic" half at least) and I'm going to reinstall with just the browser. IMHO the default distribution should just be that since you can install other components (like the calendar) separately, but I'm sure they have the
Popup window supression, skinable, tabs, what more could you ask for? Well, applying skins without restarting and a less monolithic nature (no email/news integration), but I digress. Check out the latest incarnation of what some are calling the best browser out there. The Mozilla team has chosen the interesting aproach of a branching development tree where incremental updates on the original code are developed alongside new versions so version 1.01 will be out soon for people who aren't
In his column last week, Robert X Cringely talked about Microsoft's Palladium initiative which was outlined in Newsweek a week earlier. Do we really need a whole new security architecture to extending down to the hardware level to combat viruses like NIMDA? Or is Microsoft manipulating public fear to further extend their hold on the PC and Internet? Take a gander at what Bob has to say.
Gregory Nashif, you can post suggestions and feedback to the stardock.logonstudio newsgroup. There have been a couple of hiccups in our quest to make it easier to make Logons. Adding in the visual editor turned out to be more work than we originally thought and some of the compromises necessary to accomodate it have been problematic. The main logon engine is still capable of generating great logons, but we're trying to balance ease of creation against the hacking that's sometimes necess
How convincing it is depends on some questionable assertions such as how benign you feel Pinochet was. Check out a much better article on Salon that came out after Phantom Menace on what the politics of Star Wars are like: http://www.salon.com/ent/movies/feature/1999/06/15/brin_main/
OK Sam, here's what you do: Choose the logon you want to export and then hit the export button. You will then be prompted where you want to write a .logonxp file for that logon. Upload the resulting .logonxp file to Wincustomize, and other people will be able to download and load it on their machines. Sander
