Are you perhaps confusing the name of the Mozilla 1.21 object with the
name of the executable program? All of the versions of Mozilla that I
have used are named "mozilla.exe". I think that is what MR2ICE is
looking for, perhaps with a complete path. For instance, my copy of
Mozilla 1.3a is:

G:\MOZILLA1_2_1\MOZILLA.EXE

This is probably what MR2ICE is looking for.

Yeah, I know the version number doesn't match the actual... I must have
screwed up when I installed it!
