A Fast Free Reliable Web Browser
By Stephen Bucaro
Mozilla is a free Web browser that offers more features
than Internet Explorer 6. At the core of Mozilla is Gecko,
a fast, reliable, open-source standards-based page
rendering engine. You can have confidence in Mozilla
because it adheres strictly to World Wide Web Consortium
standards. Download Mozilla from http://mozilla.org
To install Mozilla, execute the self-extracting setup
program, mozilla-win32-1.1-installer.exe. The setup
program provides the option to set up Quick Launch, which
makes Mozilla start faster by keeping portions of the
program in the computers memory. The seup program also
provides the option to set Mozilla as your default browser.
=> Linux
Mozilla is fully certified to run on Red Hat Linux. First
log in as root and create a directory named Mozilla.
Download the file: mozilla-1686-pc-linux-gnu-installer.tar.gz
from http://mozilla.org to your Mozilla directory. Then
open a terminal window and change to the Mozilla directory.
The downloaded file has a .tar.gz extension. The .tar part
of the extension indicates that it is an archive. The .gz
part of the file indicates that it is compressed. To
decompress the archive type the following command.
tar zxvf moz*.tar.gz
A directory named mozilla-installer will be created in the
Mozilla directory. Change to the mozilla-installer
directory and type in the following command.
./mozilla-installer
The Install Wizard will appear. Follow the instructions in
the Install Wizard.
To start Mozilla change to the directory where you
installed it (/usr/local/mozilla by default) and run the
./mozilla command.
To put a Mozilla icon in the gnome panel, open the gnome
main menu and select Panel
