Derek,
you can install both, but I would not recommend to put eg. Mozilla 0.9
on top of the Softwarechoice version.

I do have both installed, and launch the 0.9 version with a
small cmd script that sets beginlibpath= to point to
<moz0.9dir>\bin and <moz0.9dir>\bin\components

I do not think that you can run them side by side since the dlls from
on version will have the same module name.
Since the OS/2 loader finds these module names already resident in memory
it will not attempt to load a second (different but with the same name)
dll.

The result is the same as with a wrong mozilla/os2web dll version in your
libpath.

Best regards, Martin Forisch
