User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; U; PPC Mac OS X Mach-O; en-US; rv:1.6) Gecko/20040113 Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; U; PPC Mac OS X Mach-O; en-US; rv:1.6) Gecko/20040113 With MacOS X 10.3 (Panther), Apple went and made it so that each web browser is meant to provide an option for selecting the default web browser. My opinions asside in this move, it now means the Mozilla is missing a feature. That is, in the preferences you should be able to select which is the default browser. At the moment I have to go to Safari to select Mozilla as my default browser. Such an issue is already open for Camino, see 169779, so this feature request is specific to the Mozilla application, on MacOS X 10.3. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. 2. 3.
