====================================================
If you are in fact connecting to your isp, and Netscape is failing to connect
to specific websires, try editing your /etc/resolv.conf
add the lines:
search <your isp>
nameserver <dns#>
nameserver <dns#>
Your isp should provide you with two dns#'s.
