===Usability and accessibility===
Mozilla supported [[tabbed browsing]], which allows users to open multiple Web pages in the same browser window. Originally only available through the [http://multizilla.mozdev.org/ MultiZilla] extension, the feature was then implemented directly within the browser.<ref>{{cite book | chapter-url=https://pdfs.semanticscholar.org/64c2/8f3457c39d7d61bc1a52aae3f41bdbfcf84e.pdf | archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20180728035716/https://pdfs.semanticscholar.org/64c2/8f3457c39d7d61bc1a52aae3f41bdbfcf84e.pdf | url-status=dead | archive-date=2018-07-28 | last=Noll | first=John | title=Open Source Development, Adoption and Innovation | date=2007 | chapter=Innovation in Open Source Software Development: A Tale of Two Features | website=Open Source Development, Adoption and Innovation: IFIP Working Group 2.13 on Open Source Software, June 11-14, 2007, Limerick, Ireland | series=IFIP — the International Federation for Information Processing | volume=234 | pages=109–120 | publisher=The International Federation for Information Processing, vol 234.

The browser had a number of features which helped users find information. First, Mozilla had an [[incremental find]] feature known as "find as you type". With this feature enabled, a user could simply begin typing a word while viewing a Web page, and the browser automatically searched for it and highlighted the first instance found. As the user typed more of the word, the browser refined its search.
Line 93:
The Mozilla Foundation has issued a security bugs policy to help contributors to deal with security vulnerabilities. The policy restricts access to a security-related bug report to members of the security team until after Mozilla has shipped a fix for the problem. This is intended to deter the exploitation of publicly known vulnerabilities and give the developers time to issue a patch. While similar to other "[[responsible disclosure]]" policies issued by companies such as Microsoft, this policy is opposed to the [[Full disclosure (computer security)|full disclosure]] principle favored by some security researchers.
 
As of June 2005, Secunia had reported [http://secunia.com/product/3691/ three unpatched vulnerabilities] in Mozilla with the most serious one marked "less critical".
