"i've also been getting some blue screens of death when using the mail messenger, and i'm seeing where i may need to upgrade to winsock2. but before that i have to install a dial-up networking upgrade."
happy to report that after installing both of these upgrades, no more bsd's!
i've been running netscape communicator 4.5 full-on since going with the winsock2 and msdun13 upgrades, and everything is copasetic. it's a kewl browser, and i am very happy that i went with it. i'm also glad that i did not let a few problems prevent me from sticking with what, in my opinion, is a superior product.
here are the links, fyi:
microsoft.com
microsoft.com
it's very important to read the release notes on these downloads, or any upgrades. by doing just that, i learned that i shouldn't install just the winsock2 upgrade, but that i should install the dun13 in front of it. and i learned that if/when i encountered version conflict notifications while installing the dun13, i should answer "yes" to saving the newer file. from my limited experience with these version conflicts, it isn't always correct to say "yes", and so it helps immensely to read over the release notes beforehand.
fwiw :)
