I clicked on "About Thunderbird" on Thunderbird and mine is version 1.0.6 
(20050716).

Actually, now that I checked it more thoroughly, all the links on 
the "Features" part of the "Welcome" pane have the same problem. When I click 
any of those links:

    * Adaptive Junk Mail Controls
    * RSS Reader
    * Global Inbox Support
    * Saved Search Folders
    * Message Grouping
    * Privacy Protection

The redirect has the same "<NOSCRIPT><META%20HTTP-EQUIV=REFRESH%20CONTENT=" 
problem. I am using IE6 with Thunderbird 1.0.6 (20050716).

Shouldn't these links go to pages on the main Mozilla site rather than the wiki?
Eg, like http://www.mozilla.org/products/firefox/live-bookmarks
