Ok thanks a bunch Peter. >>"....So I recommend staying away from Netscape for new releases... "
Are you saying to stay away from v7? If I try mozilla, will it "interfere" with IE 6, or NS 4.8 or 7?

Netscape 6/7 and Mozilla 1 (the much better version out of the three is Mozilla, bar none) still only score around 2 to 4%. You can have as many versions on one partition as you like. Same goes for Opera. Netscape Navigator 4.8 http://browsers.evolt.org/index.cfm/dir/navigator/32bit/4.8/ Netscape 7 ftp://ftp.netscape.com/pub/netscape7/english/7.0/windows/win3 2/sea/ Mozilla 1.0.1 http://www.mozilla.org/releases/stable.html Mozilla is newer than Netscape 7 yet contains all it's features minus the AOL garbage :) So I recommend staying away from Netscape for new releases but you can install Netscape 4.8 fine.
