Journal spoonyfork's Journal: no more official Firefox/Thunderbird zip builds 2
If you haven't noticed, the mozilla group decided to stop distributing official zip builds of Firefox and Thunderbird starting with the 1.0.2 releases. You could go vote on the bug related to the discontinuation of the zip builds but the moderators deemed it dupe multiple times then wontfix. Their recommendation is to use one of the nightly build zips. The exercise of determining which one matches up with the official release is left up to the user. Best of luck. Either way, they have no interest in fixing the problem that caused them to decide to stop distributing the zip builds.
I used the zip build at work where I have to use a Microsoft Windows OS but cannot install software. I refuse to browse the public Internet (job related) using IE because I don't want to get totally owned. I also used it on my USB flash drive to help people get de-owned.
*SIGH*
I'm giving Portable Firefox a try. We'll see how it goes.

But only one person in the world needs to go through this exercise if they publicly post their findings
