I have on my site a cgi that I activate every day. It looks in the transfer log to 
see who came in, what is viewed and where it was from and what browser 
was used. My site with 50% dutch and 50% other country's have 9% 
netscape users, 80% IE and the rest is spiders and other browsers.

If you cut out the spiders you might get around 5 - 7% for netscape. I don't 
know.

Indeed. I always tried to build browser independent sites but I've always 
focused on NS mainly because if you do it right in NS most of the time IE 
will swallow it too. You can make no sence in IE (what HTML is conserned, 
javascript is a bit of a different story) and still get a correct output.
