 Your correct about the WWW. But I was commenting the Comment about the
 internet hasn't existed that long. So depending upon what we were
 answering Your right and I am too. My first, experience with web pages
 was with Netscape Naviagtor 3.0.1a. And I have used every version of
 netscape Navigator/Communicator up to and including 4.7.9.

You still a newbie then?? lol... just kidding

I used the original Mosiac, Netscape 1, then Netscape 2 (remember Netscape
Gold? and having to PAY for it?), then Netscape 3.x... then something
happened. Microsoft started to make browsers, bad ones at first, then better
ones and would give out for free, forcing Netscape to give theirs away for
free also. Over time, MS extorted software and PC makers into not putting
Netscape on their computers and forcing them to use IE has their default.

The rest is history.

Yup. Out of MCOM (Mozilla Communications).

Typo/Mistake. Should have read MCOM (Mosaic Communications).

 I thought Netscape was born from Mosiac, the first internet browser. I
 remember when Mosiac was all you had for graphical internet.

Exactly.

Yes, the Name Mozilla (MO) was taken from Mosiac.

 This is one of many reasons when, after purchasing Windows XP and
 installing it, I un-installed it and throwed it in the garbage.  I've
 never regretted it.  I use Windows ME and don't have to work with that
 type of bad OS behavior.  A user shouldn't have to go in and tweak the
 OS to have it operate properly with non-Microsoft software.

What tweaking? I'm on of the few folks that Zone Alarm doesn't work for.
Last I heard no amount of tweaking has helped with a particular problem and
no one seems to know what causes it. But I got lots of non-Microsoft
software and I just installed it and it worked. - Seems there was one that
needed the check for 98 or 95 compatable mode - is that tweaking?

Netscape problem with XP

2002-02-09 Thread Bob Lathe

I have used Netscape for 15 years. I have 6 Compaq computers and just 
bought a new 5660AP, 1.8. The first thing I did was load Netscape 6.2-1 
and made it the default mail/browser.

My problem is that it will not auto connect to the server. In other 
words when I open netscape it does not even try to dial up However 
it does with Explorer even though Netscape is the default!! Is this a BG 
special???

Can anybody help.

Actually the dept of defense created what we know as the internet, in
the 60's.

Up to the advent of 2400baud modems about 90'  Mostly the Government and
and College and Universities, used the internet exclusively.

Netscape was started in about 92/93'.

Yes, as the ARPAnet. But the topic here is not the Internet nor the

part was developed in the late 80's and early 90's. So Jonas is right.
