Netscape 6.2

lylonius writes: "Netscape today released version 6.2 of its browser based on Mozilla. Downloads for a variety of platforms and languages are available. You can also check out the release notes. This release comes off the Mozilla 0.9.4 branch, and is the third major release from Netscape using Mozilla." Kmeleon also has a release today, if you'd like your web with a little more browsing and little less AOL-promotion.

    If I can't access MSN, why would I want it? :)

    ...and if you want your daily dose of factually-impaired pseudo-journalism, MozillaQuest has the usual commentary.

    Funny, I've found the last batch of 4.7s to be pretty darn stable. IE 5 crashes like a mofo all the time
    What color is the sky on your world? Here on Earth, IE 5.x (under Win2K at least) is about as solid as you can get. IE 6 doesn't crash either, but it has some annoying link-bar behavior (open two windows and click a link in the link bar in one window; the page will come up in the other window). Even the Nutscrape advocates I know of around here (both of them) will admit that 4.7x is a crash-prone POS.

    Back when I was running Win98, IE 5.x rarely crashed. It had issues with /. when I had mod points to burn (all the drop-down boxes to mark posts as funny/insightful/troll/etc. next to each post confused the layout engine), but closing the window with the problem would clear it up.

    WTF? Are the mods hitting the cheap crack again?
