4getmoz

A Mozilla, Mozilla Firefox and Mozilla Thunderbird download script for 4NT users

The 4getmoz.btm script provides all 4NT users with an easy and fast way to download and install the nightly build of both Mozilla and Mozilla Firefox.

Current version is 2.6.0 [ download ]

Tested and works with 4NT version 4.01 and 5.00 on Windows XP and Windows 2000. 4NT is commercial software and is copyrighted property of JP Software, Inc.

Requirements

  • 4NT
  • unzip
  • unzip needs to be in the current %PATH.
  • plug-ins are deleted unless you use the saveplug parameter. A much better solution is to use this cool way to separate your plug-ins from your Mozilla directory

Absolutely no support or warranty is given on 4getmoz.btm. Use it on your own risk.

%ProgramFiles%\Mozilla\nightly
