   then let me suggest this: Net 7.1 and Net 7.2 are dead end   
   products.  They aren't being upgraded anymore.  My   
   suggestion is for you to go with a program called SeaMonkey.   
     SM is Netscape, and the only difference between the two is   
   Net has all the Net and AOL addons.  They are the same   
   programs developed from the same source.  Whatever you can   
   do with Net you can do with SM.  Whatever bugs and security   
   problems Net had, SM fixed most of them:
