   It's aupposed to have built in security features which are far better   
   than IE, and I use Netscape 7.1. Can't be bothered to upgrade as I've   
   never knowingly had a security issue or crash. The other thing is that   
   Netscape is much better designed from the start, so you don't keep   
   having to download fixes to the browser unlike with MS IE.   
      
   With Netscape Mail & Newsgroups there is also a 'JunkMail' feature which   
   enables you to flag incoming spam which your ISP doesn't pick up. After   
   a short while NM automatically recognises any spam that it has been   
   trained to flag, and dumps it all into a 'Junk' folder each time you   
   download. Very useful feature.
