Maybe I'm paranoid, but to "install" Netscape using "NetscapeInstaller" 
involves downloading from the net. I've no problem with that, but I do take 
issue that, in order for the install to succeed, the files must go into 
/usr/local/netscape.

Now, unless I'm mistaken /usr/local has root:root permissions. So, in effect 
I have to download as root? Sounds like a Windows-come-and-get me install??

My gut feeling is that I must be mistaken, and/or I don't understand the 
perrmission thing with /usr/local/ . . . Since no-one else has complained 
about this, how can I download it as user? I get error messages about 
"pipeline being broken" or such.

How I love being a newbie -- just got back onto the list. Great to be back!

Tia,
Andre
