Over on the CF-Talk list - a ColdFusion technical list - they're
complaining 
that Netscape 6 breaks a lot of javascript that worked in NN4.7.  The 
general consensus there is you now have to build sites for 3 browsers - 
NN4.7, NN6 and IE4+ instead of just 2.

Haven't tried it myself, but I reckon it would pay to check any sites
that 
use DHTML or Javascript, and rewrite them if necessary.

I won't be downloading it until at least a month has passed and we're
into 
version 4 of the browser.
