I have absolutely no problems with Netscape 4.75. None. You say it's
the most unstable version yet you do not say what makes it unstable?

4.75 fixes some rather security problems (go to
www.linux-mandrake.com/en/security/mdk71-updates.php3 and read about
them). If you don't mind massive security holes in your Netscape,
feel free to use anything other than 4.75.
I would like to know what problems you are having, however. I have no
problems with Netscape at all.
