Don't steal music.

ooooooo Netscape's finally doing something right this time, this might give Netscape a new life.

But on the other hand Netscape's now an ISP ..... a charged variant of Firefox .... ugh that thought disgust me

I just registered ..... wouldn't be able to download it until the 30th, let's see what happens then

From another thread,
The new features we can expect are...
Site Controls and Live Content
You would be able to manage different settings of security for different sites. And you can customise your browser toolbar with live weather, news headlines etc.

We might have more (new) features.

Sigh .... but it's Netscape

Personally I used to like Netscape, but I don't anymore anymore after 5.0 .... it installs too much junk (by junk I don't mean spywares/adawares ... but the functions included in Netscape). Even though it is fast but it's just too complicated, and the UI is just messy (As opposed to crappy UIs for Moz and Firefox )

one other thing. I didn't know that you are in charge of sillydog701 until today

Any by the way ... I noticed that you use OS X .... do you, by any chance, have a font called "LiHei Pro" ?

They did not use the native interface from the OSes... and I don't like those either.

Off topic
I don't try to *steal* people from another website to SillyDog701. But yes, I've been running SillyDog701 since early 1997.

Like this?

Hopefully they will remove all those useless crap in Netscape 8 ....

Netscape 7.2 is a lot better than Netscape 6....

Wait ... maybe I confused 7.2 with 6
I'll try it now

EDIT:
I can't believe I forgot something : I CAN turn off some of the bars, now it looks so much better ... except .... for the skin background color.

The Rendering Speed is good too, even better than firefox

Pity I can't build Netscape

Base on Mozilla 1.7.2, that's why I'm still using Netscape, Maybe FireFox is newest and powerful, BUT Netscape is more stable...However, Netscape still go on....not dead..

You can apply themes to Netscape, if you really want to.

Netscape 7.2 is a lot faster than Netscape 7.1. However Netscape 7.2 is not fast under Mac OS X (as slow as Mozilla).

Netscape 7.1 (Mac) was unbearable slow under OS X.

No, Netscape is not dead. Just not updating that fast as Firefox.

可能沒辦法ㄟ....Netscape 的原始碼好像從來沒公開過 (除了 Gecko 核心 )

What do you mean?
