Details

From Bugzilla Helper:
User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.0; en-US; rv:0.9.9+)
Gecko/20020329
BuildID:    2002032903

The taskbar shortcut that is created has both a basename of Mozilla and a
Comment field created by default, and on mouseover of the toolbar (if the user
has tooltips enabled)s/he sees 'Mozilla Mozilla'. I've had a dozen people ask me
so far why this looks so bad, and this has been the default installer behavior
for several builds/releases now. I feel that having the comment be the same as
the shortcut name is extraneous, and presents a poor face to the world (so to
speak). If the comment said 'A Web Browser' then the tooltip would display as
'Mozilla - A Web Browser' which would make more sense to people who've never
heard of Mozilla.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Install Mozilla under Windows 9X
2. Choose any option that includes creating the quicklink/shortcut in the
taskbar (enabled by default)
3. Mouseover (if tooltips are set to display, as they're enabled by default in
Windows 9X)

Actual Results:  Tooltip reads 'Mozilla Mozilla'

Expected Results:  Tooltip should read 'Mozilla' or 'Mozilla - A Web Browser' or
somesuch
