- Important: Browser re-base from Mozilla to Seamonkey
The Mozilla Suite has been replaced by Seamonkey, the internet
application suite from the Mozilla Foundation that includes a Web
browser, email and newsgroup client, IRC chat client, and HTML
editor. Users of the Mozilla Suite are advised to transition to
Seamonkey, which offers the same application functionality and
shares the same "Mozilla Application Suite" codebase as the legacy
Mozilla Suite, which is no longer maintained by the Mozilla
Foundation and subsequently will not be regularly updated for bug
and security fixes.
While this change has no immediate impact on users other than
securing the long-term availability of security fixes, it
introduces substantial changes to the Browser API and ABI.
Therefore, applications that depend on those APIs (for example,
browser plugins) may need to be upgraded as well. Current Firefox
plugins will work with the Seamonkey Navigator Web browser.
