  1. Review - Ad Muncher

    4.41.4356 Beta (Feb 24, 2003)

    I guess this program will save you a megabyte or so..
    Other than that, its attemps to connect to the internet shed a different light on matters. Could removing driver files just be one of multiple tasks of this program?

  2. Comment - Firefox Inches Toward 1.0 Milestone

    4.41.4356 Beta (Jun 17, 2004 - 10:32 AM)

    "An earlier preview of Firefox 0.8 coincided with a name change that stripped Firefox of its previous moniker, "Phoenix." Phoenix conflicted with the name of another open source project, resulting in the change."

    Wrong. Firefox was at a certain point named "Phoenix" but this was later changed to "FireBird" because the Phoenix Corporation objected (there were some legal issues). The Phoenix Corporation is not an open source project.

    However, there already was an open source project named "Firebird" (which is overseen by IBPhoenix, an organization that provides services to InterBase® and Firebird developers, NOT Phoenix or the Phoenix Corporation).

    After the Firebird open source supporters protested the name change of Firefox, it was then decided to name "Firebird" (the browser) to Firefox.

    Get your facts straight.
