You have to have the browser you want to add 
on your system, and when you click on 
'configure' it brings up a box where you can 
navigate to the exe file. Then, I forget, I think 
you have to select it from the list and click 
'add.'

A search on google turned up this:
"NGlayout is Netscape's Next Generation 
Layout engine, and probably the most 
important new component under development 
for Mozilla and Netscape"

I find it worth it to me to set it at whatever 
Netscape version I'm concerned with most at 
the time. It's definitely worth it to add to your 
list of external browsers the ones you are most 
likely to view pages with. Once they're on the 
list, it's pretty easy to switch from one to 
another  as you work on different problems of 
a site or different sites. 
That said, I must admit that I do not in fact 
switch around very often.
