Good to see "Mozilla of archives format" getting attention as well as
its unmatched MHTML encoder, "so that Firefox becomes completely besides
the MHTML Viewer" :) Like I told you before, MAF was the killer Mozilla
app for me and probably a lot of people - it caused me to completely
ditch IE, except for apps like Exchange OWA that require IE and ActiveX
controls. Keep up the excellent work man, I know it's been difficult for
you the past couple of weeks, but we all appreciate the work you've
done.
