Another reason not to use 6.2, along with lousy mail, printing, etc. But, the older versions do nicely; she wouldn't use anything but NS, so...

No real answer for this debate. You are screwed with both of them. I pretty much have to use IE because our intranet uses VBScript, not Javascript. Nuts.

This report was by aol the spy, censor, email reading kings.
I download email to my machine as little as possible (use hotmail)
So speed is my only issue even though I still use both.
Netscape is best for my Mac, and as much as I hate to say it IE is faster
and more stable for my PC. I still like how netscape is setup with plug ins
and it's abilities and all. I think microsoft has something within windows
to make netscape crash or something. @ least thats what it seems like sometimes.

Well let me see. Who owns Hotmail? It is still a tossup as to who is worse MS or AOL. I am so glad when they fight.
