I know what you mean, Vince. Things got very flaky for a while. I am on 7.2 but from a Mozilla download. It seems to work better than Netscape's 7.2. Netscape 8 left me with the same feeling as Netscape 6. I haven't tried Opera but based on your experience with it and our commonality with Netscape I am going to try it ASAP. Thanks for sharing.
