You have no idea how often I used to say that on the old heap when it was my only browser. :doubt:

Well here I am on the computer at my local library, and it uses Netscape. The print of a post shows as BLACK against the background. Neither choice in the profile makes a difference. :?

Can we have a third Netscape friendly background choice someday? I've had to turn the brightness up all the way on the monitor to see anything.
Another annoying thing about Netscape: It seems to fight me every time I try to do anything while trying to type up a post. :rolleyes:

I have been down at home for 3 days due to a bad modem. That's why you haven't seen me in the arenas. Do you think that maybe they figured out I'm quitting them at the end of the month? :lol: The repair tech comes on Tuesday. Cya then. (I wonder if I can wangle a free month out of them? :lol: )

Hi Glider,
I use Netscape 90% of the time. Have had problems in the past but not like the ones you've described. I would suggest marking all the text you wish to read when on a black back ground as the marking causes a negative effect (black text shows white).
It has always appeared to be that IE and OUTLOOK have been bigger targets for the Worms, Trojan, Virus Attacks, therefor I use Netscape

Caio, Skank

Hey nameless,

Are there free 56k ISPs you can join in order to log on and frag with us at the end of the month?

PS: Netscape sux.

Highlight the text while I'm viewing it. Brilliant! I'll keep that in mind next time I'm on the liberry compooter. (Although a third choice for background colour would still be nice. ;) )

There are many reasons why Netscape sux. But mostly it sux because the majority of user made websites are configured for IE.
Now that AO Hell owns Netscape, I am even less impressed with it too.

As for Fluffy's point of view, I can say that using Netscape screwed me many times, but I was always reaching for a drink afterwards, rather than a smoke. :doubt:
