NW -- One can HOPE they use Netscape! Internut Exploder is not my pref. When I chenged to RoadRunner as my ISP recently I was shocked it uses IE as the default browser. There were hyperlinks that did not work. The same pages on Netscape saw the links work fine! Aol owns Time Warner-- the provider of RR and they ude IE-- wierd. They also default to Outlook foe email--- within hours Norton notified me of the 1st virus. It took a couple hours to correct Bookmarks and fix the addressbook IE/LookOut caused problems with. Now using Netscape as browser and email-- working well now!

NW, re >Compaq to Use Netscape as Default XP Browser?<

Another reason for me not to buy a Compaq PC. I've tried Netscape 6 and it is lacking basic features, like ability to paste and copy the address field.
