   Netscape 8.x is a browser only which is based on Firefox and   
   also contains the IE browser.  Netscape 9 isn't out yet, but   
   its supposed to be based on the newer versions of Firefox.   
      
   If you like Net 7.2, then I would suggest upgrading to   
   SeaMonkey.  SM and Net are basically the same program,   
   except with Net it includes all the AOL/Netscape stuff.  Net   
   7.2 ended years ago, but SM contains lots of bug and   
   security fixes.  The best thing about SM is it will pick up   
   the Net 7.2 profile and start using it:
