As I'm very content with the stability of my native Netscape, I wouldn't
change to Linux' one before testing it for a while. Is it possible to
install both of them? With the same ~/.netscape directory, so that I
don't have to duplicate my bookmarks and mails?
BTW is Netscape 4.74 already in the ports? As I read it ships now in
only one version for the whole world including 128-bit encryption.
