Mozilla 1.3.1 Released

Thursday May 8th, 2003

Mozilla 1.3.1 has been released. This version is essentially the same as 1.3 but with support for XPInstall on Mac OS X and a few security fixes. All the interesting new stuff is in Mozilla 1.4 Beta, which has also just been released. Check out the Mozilla 1.3.1 Release Notes for more information and grab a build from the mozilla.org Releases page or direct from the mozilla1.3.1 directory on ftp.mozilla.org.

It's possible that there was just some glitch. There is actually a battery of machines that all live behind the address ftp.mozilla.org (I think 7 different machines) in a "round-robbin" configuration. I'm not a sysadmin so don't ask me how that works, but likely you had problems connecting to one of the machines in the system while others didn't have problems because they were hitting some other machine. My advise when that happens is to try back in a few minutes and hope you hit a different machine or whatever was wrong with the initial machine is fixed.

dont install this if you dont feel like rebooting after the install. Now i am forced to use phoenix until I can find the time to reboot. i thought software that makes you reboot was finally out of fashion.

Yes, yes, this is a repost. I'm hoping the powers-that-be pick this up.

IIRC, and I'm not sure at all, there was a memory leak in 1.3's Mail-News.

Is that also fixed in 1.3.1?

# Intel pentium class processor (233 MHz or faster recommended) Why Not Amd,Cyrix, Transmeta :) and you can add a 500Mhz processor (is better) Yes the mozilla is running on a p166mhz too but i don't tell you how fast it is ... # 64 MB of RAM Recomended 256MB -512Mb of ram :) the 1.3.0 is leaking a lot and after a while the memory usage is 100% (XFree leaks ?) after a day of using Mozilla
