Kenneth....I'll bet you're dragging the executable from a
window to the desktop and choosing 'Link'. Instead
right-click the desktop and choose 'Create New->Link to
Application' the applet that comes up has 4 tabs (General,
Permissions, Execute, and Application). On the General sheet
there will be a button with the gear icon on it. Push the
button and you'll soon have a wide choice of icons (several
of which are Netscape icons). Select the Execute tab and on
the Execute sheet you'll need to set Command: to 'netscape'
(or /usr/bin/netscape if you prefer).
