about:buildconfig

about:config - Very important for tweaking FF.
about:plugins
about:credits
about:Mozilla - This is my favorite. - tange1, on 10/12/2007, -10/+167about:credits -- Andrew Henry, thats me :-)
- khag7, on 10/27/2007, -2/+139I tried to submit about:Mozilla as a digg story but its smart enough to not allow that. I think it would be cool for people on digg to see that and then be like "whoa this is a local link!" no digg effect on that one!
- cinnix, on 10/12/2007, -4/+71If it ain't broken, don't fix it. Remember that young padawan.

I don't trust people with 2 first names.

- jocnnor, on 10/12/2007, -9/+48You forgot
about:Service Temporarily Unavailable
At least...that's what I got. - inactive, on 10/12/2007, -7/+44Yeah, while tweaking it, there's just a matter of time until you will end up fixing it.
- thelimopit, on 10/12/2007, -7/+38Not digging because I got this FOR EVERY SINGLE ONE!!! FTW!?

Internet Explorer - isthisnametaken, on 10/12/2007, -2/+31dugg you down and buried your story! Take that!
- obrysii, on 10/12/2007, -0/+25The Mozilla browser had a different thing, as did Netscape.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/About:mozilla A nice write-up here. - gmoo, on 10/12/2007, -2/+27Someone made an extension for FF called about:kitchensink
When you go to about:kitchensink it displays an ascii art kitchen sink!
The extension: https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/742/
Here’s what it looks like when you go to about:kitchensink: http://www.mozilla.org/docs/web-developer/samples/kitchensink.xml - tomhutchinson, on 10/12/2007, -4/+27Has anyone ever tried this url:
chrome://browser/content/
it's freaky. - Tallon29, on 10/12/2007, -2/+22I hope that's a joke
- iamcanman, on 10/12/2007, -0/+20From the source code for 2.0.0.1: (netwerk/nsNetModule.cpp)

about:cache
about:cache-entry - Jofaba, on 10/12/2007, -0/+15Heh, that's pretty cool. You can turn the water on and off by clicking on the handle.
- mcraigw, on 10/12/2007, -0/+15
They forgot
about:blank and
about:neterror - jstohler, on 10/12/2007, -0/+14See the online world through the eyes of Googlebot:
1. about:config
2. Right-click in the list of preferences, and choose new string
3. Enter general.useragent.override for the name
4. Enter Googlebot/2.1 (+http://www.googlebot.com/bot.html) for the value - techlinks, on 10/12/2007, -2/+15Hmm...this could either be very very funny, or very very sad.
- toddmok, on 10/12/2007, -0/+12Is it just me or does the water coming out of that sink say PooP?
- isthisnametaken, on 10/12/2007, -2/+13so does the content of about:Mozilla ever change?
- madeingermany, on 10/12/2007, -1/+11Hidden? I think they are all well documented.... maybe except the Book of Mozilla ;)
- brayn80, on 10/12/2007, -5/+14I'm not fixing it, I'm tweaking it! There's a difference!
- quasipalm, on 10/12/2007, -2/+10Anyone else get two entries for "Microsoft® DRM" (npdrmv2.dll and npwmsdrm.dll) from about:plugins?
Gee, thanks Microsoft. - fubes2000, on 10/12/2007, -1/+9lol it's just mirroring the "Service Unavailable" page.

read the source. - janoside, on 10/12/2007, -2/+10Because enough people on digg (read "the community") decided that it should be there. If it doesn't interest you, don't bother reading it or leaving a comment about it.
- rasterbator, on 10/12/2007, -10/+18@sheepster:
Whenever I see the extension .dtd Carlos Mencina comes to mind.
dee-tee-dee! - vafada, on 10/12/2007, -1/+8missed about:license
- UltimaNut, on 10/12/2007, -4/+11about: as old as dirt
- ckedge, on 10/12/2007, -2/+8It's official, there are now way more n00bs on digg than the techological elite. Digg has jumped the shark.
- zeldafan, on 10/12/2007, -3/+9Try http://tinyurl.com/3n64j (not tub girl or anything like that *****, just a shortcut with tinyurl to about:Mozilla)
(Not sure how well it will work because I install all my programs on my F: drive) - kostyan01, on 10/12/2007, -0/+5about:blank
- Trini2daBone, on 10/12/2007, -1/+6LMAO at you sir.....
- one321, on 10/12/2007, -1/+5I'm assuming that The Book of Mozilla was referring to Thunderbird and Firebird back before they were forced to change it to Firefox.
- inactive, on 10/12/2007, -0/+4it's like a russian nesting doll
- Rayor, on 10/12/2007, -0/+4about:bloat, about:logo, about:about, and about:cache-entry don't work for me.
- DIGGerPhelpsND, on 10/12/2007, -1/+5http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Book_of_Mozilla
- jonnyq, on 10/12/2007, -0/+4FTFA: "about:plugins Of course, what is Firefox without it’s powerful extensions? This option will display detailed information about all the plugins installed for Mozilla Firefox."
about:plugins shows information about plugins. Not extensions. Plugins are not extensions. Flash is a plugin. Adblock is an extension.
Carry on - nayr, on 10/12/2007, -0/+4start it in safe mode :)
- yahoofrom, on 10/12/2007, -0/+4I want to delete your comment.
- Hardcase, on 10/12/2007, -0/+4@toddmok: I think the tubes got crossed somewhere.
- tomhutchinson, on 10/12/2007, -0/+3For me, it just did the whole 'new browser within a tab' thing, minus all the ill effects. Sorry about that :-(
- akinder, on 10/12/2007, -0/+3"This item is invalid and cannot be loaded. Firefox does not know what this is, and neither does most of it's fanbase."
- trib4lmaniac, on 10/12/2007, -0/+3Author also neglected to mention about:license.
- lcmatt, on 10/12/2007, -3/+6Got to love some of the plugins: (On Windows)
Microsoft® DRM
Windows Genuine Advantage validation plug-in - ryannerd, on 10/12/2007, -0/+3I tried this URL and it asked if I wanted to restore my crashed session. I answered no. Then it put a browser within the tab (meaning the tab instantiated the browser interface menus and all so that it was contained in the tab).. It then sent my CPU usage to 100% and started chewing up memory left and right until I hunted it down and killed it with task manager.
