Mozilla Firefox Patch

Update [30 June 2005]: This patch no longer works for Firefox 1.1+.

If you use Mozilla Firefox, like me, then you've probably noticed that the "tooltips" you see when you run your mouse over links (like here) then you've noticed that rather than making the tooltips more than one line, Firebird/Firefox cuts the line off with an ellipse. I got annoyed enough that I went searching through Bugzilla, found a patch that hasn't been applied yet to the current build, and then made a program that automatically patches the problem in Mozilla Firefox 0.8 for Windows.

Download it here, and make sure that you close out firefox completely before installing (otherwise it'll fail).

Update: I don't know how this works with newer versions of Firefox, so use at your own risk.
