Steve, I figure Microsoft owes Netscape about a billion dollars.
Make it work like IE but better. Host the same activex, and get SAX software
to license their VBA compatible engine and modify it to exact VB script
support.
We are all going to be SOAPing each other soon.
And have you fixed the email ffolders so they don't crap out when you run
out of memory? This used to be at 20MB per folder for me.
I'm still running NS 4.75 since 6.whatever regularly cratered my machine. If
you have a new version that is much more stable, you need more PR. This is
the first I've heard of it.
We continued to pay for Netscape and then felt shafted by 6.0 . Now I run IE
and NS at the same time, since 4.75 won't do the style sheets we are
starting to put in our own content management solutions. I use NS for email,
but at home I use outlook.
maybe you should rapidly go to 7.0, to end the unreliability brand
confusion.
