Re: Fixed Font Size Annoyances

I am running Mac OS 9 with Netscape 7. I find it to be an excellent 
product. As far as all the extra products it is possible to do a 
custom setup of Netscape. You can specify that you only want the 
browser installed. I have never had a problem with installing it that 
way. One thing I find is that it is helpful to have a variety of 
browsers to be able to test web sites and track down problems.
