Mozilla 1.2.1 Released
I shouldn't be allowed to work before coffee- I posted this at like 8:20 and must've forgotten to click that all important 'Save' button. Hey, Everyone's favorite web browser besides Chimera has released version 1.2.1. The fix includes security patches so it probably wouldn't hurt to snag it if you're running it.

Well maybe that is the problem, editors keep accidently hitting the save button throughout the day... I am sure we will see this story yet again... =P
BTW, that FP was posted using Mozilla 1.2.1 which proves its simply the fastest.

That's ok, I'm sure we'd have seen the story the next two times it's going to run on Slashdot.
NO CARRIER
I was actually able to download *both* the Windows and Linux binaries in their entirety WITHOUT waiting several hours for the process to complete. I attribute this feat entirely to the slashdot editor who forgot to press "Save". THANK YOU! KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK!
Erm... lessee...
/.'ers news postings. It is stuff that matters. {insert obligatory sucking up noise here.}
1. It's about Mozilla. Not about IE. We love to see the little guy win and we love to see MS lose.
2. MS already squished Netscape, so this is kinda like sticking your tounge out at Bill. pbbbbbbbbllllllttttttt! It just feels right to diss MS.
3. We are largely anti-establishment. MS is de facto establishment. The conclusion is left for the graduate student.
4. Mozilla is cross platform, so don't go pulling that alienation crap. Unlike normal crap, it won't float around here.
Overall conclusion: This article is perfectly aligned with
Tick Tick Tick Tick Tick Tick.....
Well, except that you forget... IE is evil, and Mozilla should be worshipped. This is completely arbitrary, and isn't at all based on quality of the programs, bloat, features, bugs, rendering capability, or usage statistics. Damn, man! Remember where you are! This is Slashdot, where facts and objectivity are meaningless!
But for some reason, this post sounds like something Mao would say if he were a 21st century geek. C'mon, doesn't it? =)

I installed 1.2 as soon as it was released. I appreciate the quick update but must say I didn't notice anything wrong with the pages I visited. Apparently, this bug mostly affected some advertisements on some sites (cnn amongst others). You'd almost consider it a feature because of this.

The latency is too high.
even if Mozilla is still running.
