Don't know. If you can get into other sites ok I don't think anything is wrong with your browser. There are some freezing problems with Netscape 4.04 but noting to account for your problem.

Bookmark this site to track anomalies.

>>when I try to access a posted site or if I just try to get a quote I get this message. 'Netscape is unable to locate the server:
quote. yahoo.com. The server does not have a DNS entry. <<
Tom,
If the DNS (domain name server) at your ISP is too busy you'll get the message a lot. Perhaps if you enter more backup DNS numbers in TCP/IP controlpanel will help. I also noticed that there is an extra space between the quote. and yahoo.com. in the url that you posted but I guess it's just a typo.

Irish Paddy..for help w/your problem call Netscape..800-639-0939 This is a Mac/Netscape help line. Try to get Joe Roberts. I had a problem, sounded same as yours. He cleared it up in no time. Hope this helps.

Changing subj. to advertising:
I have never understood Apple's advertising program <do they have one?>
I caught bits of a TV commercial...kept hearing the word "Apple". My heart raced, I ran to the screen... turned out to be a car ad! :-(
On an upnote I have noticed more retail advertising - newspaper(NYTimes), but I would like to see more.

Did Apple get a single mention in TV news coverage from the Computer show? Does anyone know if Carlton (WallSt.Journal) wrote his article re: MacRumors ? Feels like there's a media blitz!
