Netscape was one of the best browsers around.

I read that ages ago on the BBC News website, yes it will now be gone, but it was declining by the year with the likes of Firefox, Internet Explorer and Safari.

Netscape's era had long since ended, it was about time. Regardless, this is old news; that slashdot article was posted December 2007.

Please do not PM me for support.

Maybe then years ago, but now it just fails, Firefox is way faster, more reliable and has addons.
