De mensen van Mozilla.org hebben versie 1.8 alpha 4 van de open source en crossplatform Mozilla 'suite' uitgebracht. Het programma bestaat uit een browser, een e-mail- en newsgroupclient, en de IRC-client ChatZilla. De verschillende versies zijn vanaf hier te downloaden. Het changelog met alle gefixte bugs is hier te vinden, hieronder volgen de release notes:
Browser- Mozilla's pop-up blocker has been greatly improved in Mozilla 1.8a4. (bug 252326.)
- Mozilla now has underlined accesskey mnemonics in the labels for XUL checkboxes and radio buttons. This makes dialogs easier to use with the keyboard. (bug 68841.)

- The resize of large images to fit the browser window has been improved to restore the image to the larger size centered at the click location. (bug 207219.)
- With Mozilla 1.8a4, users can now log out of all sites using HTTP Basic authentication. To log out of an auth session, use Tools -> Password Manager -> Log Out. (bug 231529.)
- Mozilla now supports unprompted NTLM authentication (bug 231529.)
- 1.8a4 uses gtk2 native keybindings for input and textareas. (bug 257405.)
- Mozilla can now query the list of printers through CUPS (bug 251754.)
- Linux Mozilla builds now include the spellcheck in the default install. (bug 253443.)

- Still in "alpha" state, the new Virtual Folder allows you to save a search as a folder (either a search within a single folder, or an account-wide search, or a search of a folder and its sub-folders). (bug 11051.)
Under the Hood
- Chatzilla 0.9.65 has landed for Mozilla. (bug 255081.)
- Gecko's DHTML performance has had some major improvements over the last two alpha milestones.

- Mozilla 1.8a4 offers CSS error reporting via the JavaScript Console. (bug 65469.)
- Mozilla now has support for exposing elements by their ID in the global scope for greater IE compatibility. This is quirks mode only. (bug 256932.)
