composer !!!

mozilla is junk software ! but that is what I have.


On my Win XP Pro laptop.
NEVER going to later Win cause I have NO money to throw away at M$.

Quite honestly, that's not he only program I wish I had a "shut up
and sit down" button.

Source is available.

It can't be that hard to fix, can it ? :-/

Hard for who?

I mean, everything is within walking distance, if you keep at it

The problem are the programs without source code.


Thunderbird is open source, which means the source code is available.

However, this cannot be a simple problem to fix. The bug report was
submitted 15 years ago and still has not been fixed. See

You are right, "its a dead STOP button, Jim"

I just tested mine, never used it, since I set my "connection
