Moox build firefox
MyIE 1.95

Almost all GNU/Linux distributions come with atleast 5 browsers anyhow...

--Namely: --
Mozilla
Firefox
Galeon
Epiphany
Konqueror
Lynx
eLinks
Dillo

Each one for a different purpose
Anyone tried them all ?

Netscape's Navigator was not an OpenSource browser... ever since the merger of AOL and Netscape, those developers started a new project by name Mozilla ... in a way Netscape Navigator got reincarnated to Mozilla. read the mozilla book for more info...

or read mozilla verses by giving about:mozilla in address bar ... you'll get a hint of this...

Ever since the grand success of Mozilla Project, all distros started including mozilla...

You see, its just like the old CHIP from Jasubhai that we had... which is now Digit...
