Synopsis

Reveals the code name of the browser. Both Navigator and Internet
Explorer return Mozilla
, which was the code name
for an early version of Navigator (a combination of the early
freeware name of the Mosaic browser and Godzilla). The Mozilla
character is Netscape’s corporate mascot, but both
companies’ browsers return this code name.
