Mozilla 1.4 is out
The Mozilla 1.4 browser has been released.
Among the new features, support for NTLM user authentication on Windows is especially worth mentioning. Until now, NTLM support was only available in the Internet Explorer family of browsers.
Other components, such as Mail, have gained features too. As you’d expect, the release also brings bug
fixes, improvements to browser speed, stability and usability, and very strong standards support.
I was a little surprised by the feature that lets you run a downloaded .exe file immediately. That strikes me as an unfortunate
choice. The security implications could hurt the browser itself.
