I wonder if any sites distributing windows executables might key off the OS version to default to the correct exe for your version of windows? If we do this, one would presume that such sites let you select alternate versions to download already. And if not, they could, but they might not bother/notice. -- Randell Jesup, Mozilla Corp remove "news" for personal email _______________________________________________ dev-platform mailing list dev-platform@lists.mozilla.org https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/dev-platform
