Agreed. I installed the Netscape initial 6.0 release as well as a ton of
the earlier Mozilla builds and none of them worked well enough to use.
I just installed 0.9.2/WIN32 and I am *really* impressed.
It is much much faster, it imported all my old bookmarks, the news/mail
stuff works much better (even seem to have all the options
missing/hidden from previous builds)
I think I have finally found a usable browser ....
