Welcome to MozillaQuest.com an all new on-line computer magazine. We started this Web site on Friday November 17, 2000.

MozillaQuest Magazine will show you how-to-use your PC and your PC software, and hardware. The articles and information you find here will help you get lots of bang for the bucks you spend on your computer system and software.

Many articles include references to helpful books with even more help and resources with even more information about the things discussed in the articles.

We launch MozillaQuest.com with the first installment of our series about ChatZilla, a pretty darn slick IRC client built on top of the Mozilla applications programming framework.

Current plans are to add at least one article every week so please check back every now and then.
