0.9.4 is the same base code as Netscape 6.2. For a more stable version
of the same code base, you could download 0.9.4.1 (Netscape 6.2.1), but
I believe you'd need to compile it. Moz is currently at 0.9.7, but 0.9.8
is very close... they're working on a few crasher bugs. There is a
significant performance boost with recent versions over 0.9.4. So, that
being said, wait a week and grab 0.9.8.
Regarding MusicMatch's web site, I believe they're pages have some
fancy-ass browser sniffing code that I don't completely understand that
causes the problem:
var isMac = (bP.indexOf("Mac") != -1) ? true : false;
var isPC = (bP.indexOf("Win") != -1) ? true : false;
var isLinux = (bP.indexOf("Linux") != -1) ? true : false;
var isIE4 = (bP.indexOf("MSIE 4") != -1) ? true : false;
var isIE45 = (bP.indexOf("MSIE 4.5") != -1) ? true : false;
var isNav3 = (bV == 3 && bN == "Netscape") ? true : false;
var isNav4 = (bV == 4 && bN == "Netscape") ? true : false;
var isNav6 = (bV > 4 && bN == "Netscape") ? true : false;
var isIE = (bN.indexOf("Microsoft") != -1) ? true : false;
var isDHTML = (bV > 3) ? true : false;
This is telling my untrained eye that they test for linux first and
present a different web page based on that, so it would make sense that
it works correctly under linux (I haven't tried it there, yet). It will
not work properly with the Mozilla nightly I'm currently using under
Win2K. I'm guessing that had I been using Netscape 6, it would work. My
problem could also be a bug in Mozilla. I'll persue that angle a little
further...
