Netscape6 ?

I'm running an AMD Athlon 900MHz, but when I run Netscape6 it takes a long time to load; has anyone else had this problem with Netscape6?
 
I think netscape takes longer becuase it loads its Java stuff at start, instead of on the fly like IE.. Could be wrong though.
 
actually, i've had problems with previous nutscrape - oops, netscape - navigators. although i don't like internet exploder- uh, explorer - i stick with it because it loads much faster. hm... it COULD be the java and all.
 
Its the bad implementation of Nutscrape, especially 6, it should of never been released.

Takes ages to load but it will mash decent HTML in seconds
 
Hi there,
It is not because of any stuff other than the browsers core itself .Netscape6 has to load the GECKO rendering engine and activte it so it doesd take a long time to load ,But once loaded it renders the pages very fast.......
 
.....and very badly. That is the implemetion , the handeling of the componets is toss as well as the way in which it does it.
 
Good point xtra crispy.

There is probally some thing in the court case paperes about the intergration of explorer in the desktop enviroment of windows !!

Netscape boots nice and fast on my quad alpha at work !! 🙂
 
My specs are about the same as your Daniel and I am having the same problems as you. I've done the uninstall and reinstall many times and its a no go. If it doesn't lock up..then it takes forever to load!!! I've just uninstalled again and will wait for something better. I am sticking with 4.7 for now.
 
Guys its easy.

Netscape = JAVA = CRAP + SLOW!

IE = C++ (I think) = GREAT + FAST!

Can't get easier than that!

😀
 
They have a better implementation of Java and work close with SUN , but that is about it. And they came up with the language that turned into JavaScript, which is not Java.
 
I've only noticed long loading times for NS (and Mozilla) while running Windoz... er, Windows. Under Linux, NS 4.7 starts in less than 5 seconds and Mozilla in less than 15 seconds.

Blame Windows 😉
