You have a couple of options. I would recommend keeping the old version
and upgrading the encryption with fortify (http://www.fortify.net) as the
easiest method.
If you use the Debian Netscape Installer, it will replace your old files
with the newer ones. If not, and you know where the files are

I am having trouble with my backspace key in X. It acts as the delete key
rather than the backspace, deleting characters after the cursor rather than
backspacing over them.
This only occurs in X apps, not in the xterm windows. For example Netscape,
XPaint, etc...
