- Linux - getmoz was developed utilizing Mandrake Linux, and thus, should work with any Linux system. While getmoz should work with other *nix operating systems with little (or no) modification, it has not been tested. Please contact us to let us know what else it works with, or if you are interested in porting getmoz to other operating systems.
- GNU Wget - To download the latest Mozilla build, getmoz calls GNU Wget. If you do not have GNU Wget installed, you can download it here.

- getmoz-1.1 - (03.14.2002)
- 1.1 Changes:
- runs as normal user
- automatically creates a directory in the users home directory (~/mozilla) for the Mozilla builds (this preserves any Mozilla Milestone releases)
- basic logging has been introduced
- automatically creates a directory in the users home directory (~/.getmoz) for the getmoz.log file
- checks the tarfile's timestamp of the current build against the one found on Mozilla's servers before attempting to download (it will only download if the remote version is newer)
- tested as a cronjob
- code completely rewritten and reorganized
- all error messages rewritten in an effort to provide more information
- mozget-1.0 - (01.01.2002) initial release
