   only if you want to.   
      
   If you want to use 8.0 as a browser, then you can try Thunderbird,   
   which is email only.  You can transfer your mail from 7.1 to TB with   
   no problems.   
      
   Or, I wouldn't bother with Net 7.2, instead I would go to Mozilla   
   1.7.12.  Net 7.2 is Moz 1.7.2, only in disguise.  The only differences   
   is the Netscape branded name, access to Netscape Webmail, IM, and a   
   few other Netscape benefits.  Moz 1.7.12 has more bug and security   
   fixes than Net 7.2.   
      
   You can get TB and Moz from here: www.mozilla.org
