Is anyone here using the Netscape browser?

Is anyone here using the Netscape browser? It use to be a good browser but most pages don't load correctly.

Netscape is no where near as good as it used to be. It's very bloated, imho. However I'm pretty sure it is still developed using the Mozilla platform, which is pretty good with displaying webpages.

I use Firefox myself, and don't notice many differences between it and IE when it comes to view web content. The only time I see a difference in pages is when the developer doesn't use both browsers (IE/Mozilla) to test output, which sometimes results in bad output in at least one of the two. Mozilla can be a bit picky with some of the HTML or CSS elements, while IE is... well, IE is just IE. Sometimes I can crank out a page that looks fantastic in Mozilla and crappy in IE, and vice-versa. But that can be overcome; it's all about how much effort you put into it.

What pages are you trying to view exactly? Links?

Just another confirmation, Firefox is the browser to use. Will disply 90 - 95% of pages correctly and the extensions and themes are excellent.

I must add to the mozilla organization. Firefox (which I use) protects your information and adds to the safty to your computer. You won't have all the problems that happen when you use IE.

You can get Firefox at www.mozilla.org Try to stay clear of download sites that aren't from mozilla.org A lot of download sites like cnet and download.com sometimes put spyware in the code so it defeats the purpose.
