Scarlett,
IIRC, Netscape does *re-create* it's files every time they are saved
instead of updating them, which would explain why your symbolic link
gets overwritten with a new real file every time.
Potential solution would be to wait for mozilla, but that maybe isn't an
option for you.
Regards
Gustav
