Firefox and Thunderbird Garage (Paperback)

Firefox is a fast, free Internet browser from Mozilla that runs on Windows,

Mac, and Linux Computers. According to spreadfirefox.com, to-date there

have been ~ 23 million downloads since the release of Firefox 1.0 in

September 2004, and MS IE usage has been dropping at the same time.

Thunderbird has seen more than 2 million downloads. It is an email, RSS, and

newsgroup client that is designed to make email safer, faster, and easier.

Firefox and Thunderbird Garage is a book dedicated to helping readers get the

most out of these new programs from download to installation to

configuration. This book includes extensive information on how to take

advantage of all of the additional features of the browser and email client to

meet individual needs and interests. It also covers migrating from existing

programs to ease the transition process.
