Did you find anything or come up with any reason as to why this is going
on? I just d/l 1.3b7 for win32 tonight and if I guess the filename it
still lets me in without prompt. I am still using win95 and netscape
4.05. (Yes just to make sure it isn't cached I clear the memory and
file cache then exit netscape and manually delete fat.db and relaunch
and try again- you can never be too safe heh).
Thanks,
AgentZap
