Watir and FireWatir 1.6.2 are Released

== Version 1.6.2

Changed the method of setting Watir::Browser.default when the user does not
specify a browser option. This fixes the problem where it would be 'ie' on
Mac.

Fixed FireWatir's "text" method to return the same character's as Watir's

installed.

== Version 1....
