if i've read gervs news Post ("2005-08-22 - Summary of mozilla.org staff
meeting") correctly, Mozilla has a registered trademark for the name Firefox.

So we should replace "Firefox (TM)" with "Firefox (R)" in Help/About/credits
The About box says that Firefox is a trademark. it should say registered trademark

I'm not sure what the installer says, but i think a "(R)" somewhere there would
be a good idea too.

Reproducible: Always

I second this.  In many locations, failure to defend one's trademark becomes
grounds for losing it (see Hoover vacuums).

the current text is fine (and contains neither)
