Mozilla 0.9.1 out

[JLP]

Mozilla.org has released a new version of Mozilla. New, fixed:
* Stability greatly improved since Mozilla 0.9 with 34 of our most frequently reported crash bugs fixed.
* The Modern skin has been overhauled. The new version of Modern sports a lighter and smoother look with all new icons and widgets.
* A new status bar which combines the old taskbar and statusbar into one toolbar freeing up screen real-estate (reflected in both skins)
* Typedown addressing against an LDAP server has been implemented for Mozilla Mail.
* Many performance improvements in layout and networking.
* Bi-directional text support enabled for Hebrew and Arabic thanks to the contribution by IBM. (Arabic shaping only works on Win32 right now.)
* XSLT support is now turned on although the implementation is still incomplete and has bugs.

Can't wait to get it to my computer

[JLP]

Well I run nightlies (download them every day ). But I always keep an official release installed on my drive just in case that nightly is a bad one.

Tried to download the official release, but it's slow going. 1.9k/sec at maximum

I'll try again tonight
For the moment the Talkback version works okay

I'm typing this up in Mozilla 0.9.1. I haven't used it more than 2 minutes yet, but it's running very fast and very smooth. Looks like I'll haft to take it out on a ride.

Jamm, try to scroll down on a page still loading in these fori, or when a forum page is loading, try accessing page two of a thread. Does it crash out with a GKCONTENT.DLL error?

Jord.

I would try that for you but I can't make a page on the forums to be still loading longer than a second.

Otherwise it did not crash.
But it still doesn't even display most of the animated UBB GIFs correctly.

Hmm.. I'll have to find one of those threads with a bunch of huge pictures.

[fds]

NOTE: I wanted to post it in the other Mozilla thread but looks like I have way too many browser windows open now.

Hmm.. I've just downloaded the full 0.9.1, but now tried this embed version also. Thankfully both arrived in less than a minute.

Their servers aren't particularly busy or are just good.

So, about this embed build: it isn't any better than what is offered by IE. In fact, it is worse. Now what's the reason to use it instead of IE?

[Jorden]

Ever heard of Win98Lite?
It's quite useful in that version of Windows. (The IEless one)

[xortam]

What was that about a stable browser Jorden?

[Jorden]

Win98Lite is quite stable, xortam. If you've never tried it for longer than 20 minutes, don't complain.

Besides, I am not using it. Holly is using it and she thinks it works great.

[xortam]

Excuse me?! The topic is in Mozilla 0.9.1. I don't even know what Win98Lite is except for a few comments here in the forums. Is it a browser? I thought it was a third-party package which minimized the Win98 installation.

[Technoid]

98Lite IS the Software for us who like to streamline their W9X to only have what are needed.

And While it started as a way to install W98 without IE, it has evolved into a tool that makes every part of windows awailable under

"Add/Remove Programs"

If you dont want IE, then uncheck the box and its gone....

And if you for some arcane reason wants it back when it's finaly of your computer;

Check the box and after a restart it will be back as if it had never left.

It's very good on NLE machines that is not used to anything else than capturing film
