Free Netscape 7.0 CD!

Definetly the best and fastest Netscape out there. Which may or may not mean anything to you. Just as fast as IE for most web browsing and more secure. Maybe because not many people still use Netscape.
 
I quit using Netscape after 3.04G (gold ed)....after that it became too bloated. I switched back to IE, and haven't looked back.

I'm not Pro-MS-IE, but I'm more pro-compatible than anything. If the market were to go back to Mosiac, I'd go there to be compatible.

I think if you check, you'll see that it's a UPC, not a SKU.

I prefer Opera's design and currently typing in Opera 🙂 Honestly, some websites won't load correctly with Opera and I'll have to open it using IE. Netscape 7..... I think I'm going to install it tonight. Won't hurt to try it out since it is free and I've some free time to kill 😉

aaah, more like serial number. UPC's are 12 digits, aren't they ?
 
I try to support non-MS product as much as possible. But it's too much pain to use non-MS OS and office products when people around you do. But I can live with a non-MS browser! Thanks!!!
 
Netscape is just Mozilla (except a few months behind the development curve), but with a lot of AOL commercial crap incorporated (bookmarks, desktop links, AIM, etc.) One of the great features of Mozilla is the pop-up ad blocking. That isn't available on Netscape (without a hack) because AOL (which owns NS) might lose revenue if you didn't look at the ads. Why use Netscape? Aren't you getting enough advertisements and popups in your diet? Mozilla is free, fast, stable & well mannered.

Some of you IE folks don't know what you are missing. I'm addicted to tabbed browsing (though there are some tabbed stripes of IE out there, e.g. Crazy Browser, I'm not wild about the ones I've tried- they aren't nearly as stable as Mozilla). I actually get startled by popups when I choose to use IE for some reason. The one real advantage IE has is the way it does bookmarks-Favorites. I like being able to drag them and change them on the fly without opening the sidebar or the Manage Bookmarks tool.

As to IE being more compatible, I understand that Mozilla is actually the most standards-complient browser out there. I don't have any trouble reading just about any site I use EXCEPT some of the Microsoft Knowledge Base stuff.

Opera is a great browser, too. That's my second choice (well, third maybe, after K-Meleon & Phoenix in Windows, lighter, faster stripped down versions of Gecko based Mozilla). Opera seems a little less stable than Mozy (but I like the feature that remembers which pages you had open when the browser goes tits up). Plus, the advertising banner is annoying (yes, I know I could pay for it & get rid of the banner or find a serial number on Astalavista if that were my bent, but why bother when there is Mozilla).
 
I'll put a vote in for mozilla too instead of the AOL-ed up Netscape...

Mozilla is better than opera in the sense that it's MUCH more W3C compliant...and it's better than IE in that it boots up faster(although since IE is constantly booted it has a split second advatange, unless you run the Mozilla launcher thingy that keeps it memory resident, in which case it's faster again), renders pages faster, and uhh is faster...

BUT a lot of pages don't quite work right due to them either running stupid browser detection code(which thinks mozilla is hella old lol) or simply too IE optimized =(
