   But, Netscape 7.2 is based on Mozilla the Suite 1.7.2.  The only   
   difference is the Netscape branded name, Netscape webmail access,   
   Netscape Instant Messaging, and a few other things.  Otherwise,   
   they're the same product.  Therefore, if you like the style of Net   
   7.2, then I would switch to Mozilla 1.7.12, which has more security   
   and bug fixes than Net 7.2:  www.mozilla.org
