I guess the problem is that Mozilla is a cross-plattform application who uses its own rendering mechanism to draw the complete window. AFAIK Mozilla Firebird also have this hidden window, while Camino (who uses the OS to draw the windows) does not. > A hidden window that I can't close smells too much like spyware for my > taste... That is the great thing about Open Source, you can inspect the source code yourself to make sure this is not the case. (Obviously you will want to compile it yourself too, to make sure you are getting the same code). Alternatively you can use Camino (if you do not need MailNews). -- [email protected]
