Cute, but i've been running Konqueror or Opera 8.0 when i'm running Linux. It seems that Opera integrates plugins better than does Firefox, and it's faster. There's just too much jury rigging to do with FF and Thunderbird under Linux. Try to Upgrade Thunderbird sometime. You'd think that they could at least make an RPM for it.

Luckily, it's not the Mozilla Foundation that pulled this trademark-infringing stunt.

It's a cute stunt, but this is the real world now, and Firefox needs to play with the grown-ups.

Shadowace found it, I thought it was funny so I posted it

It is funny.  How MS let that one slip by is a mystery.

I suspect very quickly, and rightly, this will be pulled as cyber squatting..

Saw this note at HOCP yesterday:

SeaMonkey 1.0 Released

***************************************

January 30th, 2006

SeaMonkey 1.0 Released

The SeaMonkey Council is proud to announce SeaMonkey 1.0, the first end-user release of their internet suite. This open source application, available as a free download from its mozilla.org-hosted website, features a state-of-the-art web browser and powerful email client, as well as a WYSIWYG web page composer and a feature-rich IRC chat client. For web developers, mozilla.org's DOM inspector and JavaScript debugger tools are included as well. SeaMonkey 1.0 is one of the most complete, powerful, and secure internet software packages available today.

SeaMonkey comes with the the look and feel familiar to users of its predecessors, the Mozilla Application Suite and Netscape Communicator packages, but adds many new features as well as back-end changes that improve security, stability and performance. Some highlights are: drag&drop reordering of tabs, phishing e-mail detection, support for a single shared inbox when using multiple accounts, and support for Scalable Vector Graphics (SVG).

The SeaMonkey project is a community-based project hosted at mozilla.org that emerged around Mozilla's suite codebase when the Mozilla Foundation announced it would discontinue further development of its suite product. The new project is dedicated to keeping this suite alive and developing it into an even more modern and complete internet software package.

I didn't have that problem. I was just generally unimpressed with MS's latest incarnation of Internet exploder.

Interestingly, the about page still lists the version as being IE6...

Sorry, that's version 0.7.1-1, i already have Thunderbird 0.8 installed, (It came with this distro). i'd like to go to Thunderbird 1.06, or 1.5, but there doesn't appear to be any RPM's for that, or for Firefox 1.5 for that matter.

I understand your desire for an RPM. it would be nice if the fine folks at Mozilla would create versions of the most popular packages. Personally though, I like not having FF and TB installed as packages. (These two programs are about the only thing I don't manage by producing packages for them.

one of the fellows I work with rolled FF 1.5 into an RPM. If you'd like, you can get it Here

Here's an RPM of TB 1.5.

I'm thinking about making one with some extra extensions pre-installed.

I downloaded 7.2 Beta Browser from Microsoft and it screwed up some memories and pass words on certain sites. Also I now cannot go to my bank site on this browser. I have to use another browser to do so.

Thanks, saves me a bunch of trouble. i've been unable to build from source for some reason. i have both TB 1.5 and FF 1.5 saved as source files, but they simply won't build. i'm running SuSE 9.2 Professional on an HP pavilion AMD64.

You don't even want to think about what i went through to get dialup to work. (Hint, DON'T use kinternet, it's broke under SuSE. Use kppp to configure).

I'm also going to look around and see if there is a way of taking the official release and repackaging it into an RPM. There ought to be a way, I just haven't looked deep enough into the RPM format to know.
