Netscape’s New Browser
Via PCWorld.com -
I just read about Netscape’s new browser in my PCWorld.com newsletter today. The new browser is based on Firefox, but has a great new feature that would allow a user to view problem web pages using the IE engine with just a couple of clicks (as opposed to having to open a new IE window). How convenient that would be! Actually, the browser isn’t using the IE engine itself, but the engine that is part of Windows, so this browser would only work on a Windows PC. Like Firefox, the browser has tabbed browsing, security features, a pop-up blocker, and support for RSS.
The article said that the browser is currently only available to a select group of beta testers, with a public beta planned for next year. I did a search for more information and I came across this link, which looks like a link to the beta, if I’m not mistaken. I’ll be downloading it soon to find out for sure…I’ll keep you posted!

The interface is a nightmare. They mangled everything Firefox about it.

Wow, you are so right! Way too busy! Ick. Firefox stills rules in my book.
