“Installation is a simple untar of the binary into the
directory of your choosing. Then launch Mozilla with a ./mozilla
command and you now have the new Mozilla running on your system. So
lets see what’s new.”

“At first glance I noticed that session history is now tracked.
You can use the drop down box on the address bar to see where you
have been. The forward and back buttons also allow the user to move
through the history of their session. This still has a few bugs in
it, but it is still being developed.”

“Another option that has been added is the implementation of
skin switching, allowing you to choose the and look and feel of the
browser with a few different themes. … Chatzilla, a built in IRC
client, has also been added. … The interface is command line
based and is still only for experienced IRC users. so if your
looking for the graphics based chat utilities, this is not for
you.”
