Netscape:
You can get Mozilla to show up in the Netscape icon by going to the URL
about:mozilla
You'll get a page with a quotation from the Book of Mozilla, and, on all
subsequent pages, instead of showing the meteor shower in the Netscape
logo icon as a progress indicator, Mozilla will rise up and breathe fire.
Also, if, before you go to
about:mozilla
you go to:
http://home.netscape.com/people/jwz/
which is Jamie Zawinski's home page - the Netscape logo icon will be
replaced by a compass.
