I'm not sure, but the problem may still be with browse-url.el -- or has
this been fixed now? If not, browse-url-netscape expands the url passed to
it (e.g. "http://www.sun.com/") to

"-remote openURL(http://www.sun.com/)"

which is not handled correctly by Windows Netscape.

The browse-url.el maintainer, Dave Love <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>, is updating it
for Emacs only, not XEmacs. I have a hacked version that now works for
XEmacs, but it's definitely not done tidily - I've just chopped out the
"-remote openURL(" prefix and ")" suffix, and it works.

I'm cross-posting this to [EMAIL PROTECTED] in case they have some ideas.

Regards,
Thomas.
