does anyone still use Netscape?
if so then you might be interested in the
latest release
Speed, Flexibility and More Security Choices Than Any Other Browser
• Netscape 8.0 warns you if you come across possible spyware sites, and automatically configures its settings to help protect you.
• Tabbed browsing has been expanded so you can open all of your favorite web sites in one window automatically.
• New Passcard Manager remembers all your screen names and passwords and can auto-fill that information on sites
etc...

I only use Netscape on office machines where I do my contracts and the SUN I am currently using has Netscape but its horrendously slow.
IE has never let me down yet so Ive never felt the urge to change
My first browser experience was back in about 1987 and was Mosaic while working at Digital Equipment Corporation (who were then taking over by Compaq and later Compaq were taken over by HP)
That was the very first days of Yahoo and I still remember their "roulette" to take you to a random site, although there were not many sites in those days.
The Internet is one of those very few things I never thought would take off but I was proved wrong (BIG TIME!)

I tested many browsers and IE is still my favourite for his speed but I use firefox for the auto fill function so I'm looking forward Netscape if they can combine the two

I use the
Google Toolbar's autofill which seems fairly comprehensive

First impressions after 10 minutes: slow like hell !!!!!! and worse, it can't access https sites (adsense and gmail are timed out). Loading page is very fast but contacting the server takes ages ... .
Thanks masseur: didn't know it could do that
Edit: well the french version of the toolbar doesn't have that option

I always found Netscape to be far too bulky for my liking, after all it's only a flippin web browser yet the installation package is relatively huge (or at least it used to be)!
Still, I might give the new version a try just for the hell of it
