Which looks better, IE or NETSCAPE

I use IE6 at home, IE5 at a Mac at school, and Netscape 6.2 at my mom's work. So far, IE6 is the most stable, IE5 on the mac looks the coolest, and Netscape, after taking some time to load, works ok.
But for those who call XP's new GUI teletubby, I think Netscape 6.2 is more teletubby than IE6. Netscape is all that ugly shade of blue, all the icons look the same and are huge, and the loading bar is constantly on the move.

I keep saying find the "Use Quick Launch"
Setting and Netscape will put itself on your system tray and, conseqently loads quicker that
IE, Try it

????? what are you talking about?
oho! i bet you clicked X11's link and tried to go to his website. And i bet you are using Opera, right? well, there's a little thing there, you see Opera seem to think somehow that IE should be the definitive browser for some stupid reason, so by default Opera is set to identify as IE.
This means, if you visit a web page using Opera, the web page thinks you are using IE and treats you accordingly.
Useless and pathetic on the part of Opera if you ask me. Most people don't even know about this feature so they leave it set to IE all the time. BUT you can easily go into Preferences and choose to identify yourself as Opera (you won't be able to visit hotmail due to Opera-blocking code on the MSN site) or 3 versions of mozilla (well, that's what it says, but it means netscape).
Set it to identify as opera and you can visit X11's site no problem. And while you're in the Preferences menu, might as well set the cookies and history to expire after the current session and be deleted upon exit too. It all helps...

I just go through a proxy to visit X11's web site in IE.
