I currently use Mozilla though I've considered Firefox.

Have you used Mozilla and, if you have, how does it compare to Firefox?

Thanks for your help!

Yeah, I've got 1.7 loaded, though I don't use it all that much, and that's mainly because there's no cut, copy and paste buttons on the toolbar, a must for places like this. I like the idea of an all-in-one, yet was curious mainly because of the "Composer" in it, which is something you can now get by itself. (For those who don't know, Mozilla suite 1.6 and/or 1.7 looks essentially like Netscape 6, and I would guess whatever the latest Netscape looks like. Back in '98 Netscape more or less gave it's code to the open source community).

As far as comparison? The browser alone is great, after the requisite couple of days of adjustment. I'm not a real fan of their e-mail programs, admittedly, so I still use OE. Even added a button for it to the toolbar. That's what I do like, the ability to add certain functions. At the Mozilla forum I linked to, you can talk directly with at least some of the theme and extension writers. Just try getting through the front lines of former fry cooks to get a problem solved at MS.
