Re: Netscape History Question
That was the first version that offerred a 128 version. I know because I have kept up with every version since Navigator 3.0.1 through Communicator 4.7.6 (mac). To get 128 bit version you had to fill out a form with you name email and you had to click on check box swearing you were a US citzen under penalty of law. Supposedly the Federal G-Men could come to your house and throw you in Federal prision if you were not to be a citizen. You you could get the regular version and then use the utility Fortify from fortify.net to convert it to 128 bit.

That doesn't seem right, we had segregated US vs. Export versions prior to 4.05 and the only reason for that would be cryptographic strength. -Dan Veditz "Phillip M.
