Re: Warning about Netscape 7 Preview

DING!

Exactly, Darrell! Why WOULD anyone want a spyware-enhanced, AOL-bloated
browser (that weighs in at about 26-30MB for the Windows version), when the
EXACT SAME THING (including the controls and look) can be had directly from
the source, without all the excess BS AOL seems to think is "necessary" --
the source being Mozilla 1.0 at www.mozilla.org. It's been HEAVILY beta
tested by the open-source community, so this "1.0" browser is on-par with
the "6.x+" browsers from the others... Benefits: 1/3 the size of Netscape 7,
does everything Netscape does (except crash your registries and add a
zillion software programs you don't want or have better versions of already
OR add "AOL" icons to your desktop, start menu, favorites, and your dog's
flea collar), and you can download the ZIPfile, extract it, make a shortcut,
and KEEP THE WHOLE THING CONTAINED WHERE YOU WANT IT, without having stuff
strewn all about your folders... Screw Netscape/AOL. Support Mozilla.

Just my (heavily-biased) 2c...

Why use Netscape when Mozilla is available?
