Okay, thank you.  :-) Just tried to download it, but I got a strange 
prompt and then some instructions I don't know what to do with. Here goes:

The prompt, which I wrote down,  said You have started to download the 
file Netscape-mac-full.bin of the type application/octet stream. 
Click More Info to learn how to extend Navigator's capabilities.  (Yes, 
I already have Netscape, but it's 4.75, and that's why I want 7.) Anyway, 
 I clicked More Info and was sent to a web page which told me I needed 
a  plug-in and offered a plug-in search.  So my question now becomes,

What plug-in do I have to find and download to be able to download and 
use the Netscape 7?

TIA,

~Yersinia.

Download is what you want to do. That's the MacBinary installer. Just 
save it to your hard drive.

None, select 'Save to disk' if offered, or click and hold on the link 
and select 'save link as', and make sure the type in the following 
dialog is set to 'source' not 'text'.

2004-11-24 Thread PETE
Do this: Get internet explorer 5.1.7, install it and
then launch it and go download netscape 7.x. That was
the only way I was able to download 7.x to my
wallstreet. I too kept getting that annoying 'type
octet' message.
