I believe that the Creative Suite apps use to both to preview web pages and display the help system.

To say they are skins of each other is a bit underestimating. They use the same rendering engine (Gecko), but FireFox and Mozilla are nothing alike. FireFox was rebuilt from the ground up because Mozilla was such a huge steaming pile of bloatware.
In fact more browsers use Gecko than people realise. The only other 2 really are (Microsoft's) Trident and KHTML

I thought modzilla was a part of ff.

Re: List of web browsers for you all
Ok, heres a question for you all....which browsers are 64bit?
I tried 'Deer Park' alpha (firefox 64bit) and while it was fast, it didn't allow my mouse to use all of it's functions.
atm, I'm using IE 64bit and it's blistering but it still looks pants and doesn't have the functionality of FF.
Any other ideas?

Get a proper browser, like MSM. FF is dollop, and so are these other ones you all mention like netscape, they do not support a lot of of utilities, they are about as much use as a cat flap in a rhino house!

Firefox isnt crap at all, you can make sites compatible (the ones that only work in IE) by downloading IE Tab
