bob,

concerning your browser cut and paste problem.  take a look at opera.
it has a somewhat steep learning curve to tweak things, but the interface
itself is intuitive.  it may have better behavior than NS.

i would say that NS isn't even in the same league as this browser.  it's
truly remarkable.  much faster: NS 6 takes about 15 seconds to load and
display the home page.   opera takes less than 5 seconds.  more stable: it
hasn't crashed on a webpage yet, and i've been using it exclusively for
almost a week now.

the best thing is that they concentrate on useful features (like a really
superior bookmarks scheme) and don't concentrate on non-useful features,
(like instant messaging).

it's ad supported (free), but will remove the ads for an educational price
of $20.  if you like the browser and want to do your part to make sure that
it's around next year, i recommend that you (and everyone who uses it) to
pay the measely 20 bucks.  if nothing else but to tell the developers that
they're doing a great job and are filling a niche that netscape simply isn't
filling.

it comes in tarball, deb and rpm format, and is not open source.
