Do not pay attention.

Of course I knew the about:mozilla trick for a longest time. I actually
mentioned it a few weeks ago in this group:
<http://groups.google.com/group/comp.lang.javascript/browse_frm/thread/e24831ce4d08d77/b8cc6adacbd8b447>

...and this trick existed since Netscape 4.x, Mozilla Foundation just
took it over.

I used this quot as an addon to my OP just to express my attitude
towards this event and (maybe) to incline some people to try Firefox if
they did not do it yet. I just see that this quote got some more sense
now as it had all these after-war years.

Thomas 'PointedEars' Lahn could just pass over and start new topic like
"Recently appeared IE 4.x support issues" or "Influence of ECMA-262 to
the world civilization in XXI century" or just chase the cats on the
street. But no - he had to come right in my garden and make a piss
right on my new flower.
Bad, bad, bad boy! No becon to you!
