All above statistics are averages, 3 tests each were run on both browsers.

Also, nutscrape takes 5 seconds to open. IE takes less than 1.


You appear to be smokeing something...
But windows XP prbably has the priority for netscape set lower than IE. Press ALT-CTRL-DEL. GOto taskman. then click proc's and rasie the priority of Netscape. And you most likely whernt using Quick Launch. And if Internet Explorer Crashes Explorer crashes... Then your system fucks up.

X11, I use IE because it works for ME, I'm not smoking anything. IE just plain old works and has only crashed once due to a bad printer driver. Also, that beloved Netscape of yours is considered spyware. Don't belive me? http://www.tom-cat.com/cgi-bin/spybase/spybase.cgi?db=spybase&uid=default&sb=4&so=ascend&view_records=1&status=---&offender=---&name=Netscape&mh=10&keyword=&bool=and&view_records=Submit

I've always hated nutscrape, I first used it back at version 4.1 something and I've hated ever since. IE 5 sucked too, 5.5 was no different, 6 looks the same, adds a few features, but WORKS.

Netscape 6.2 and possibly earlier version ALSO have Brillant Digital Software secretly install aswell, and that software is VERY BAD, here is the software installing with Kazaa, http://news.com.com/2100-1023-873181.html

This is bad.

Yes but at least a bunch of faggets arnt getting
my information. But yes early version of netscape stink compared to modern IE versions. You are an idioit your compareing old netscape to new IE.
Its like compareing a ford escort with a ford focus.

Thats because IE is essentially loaded when you boot up.  Those four seconds didn't come from nowhere.  In fact, the forced integration of the browser likely makes your boot much more than four seconds longer.

Are you people not hearing me!!!

If you turn on Quick Launch Netscape will be loaded at Startup you bunch of idiots!!!  LISTEN TO ME.

Internet Explorer is nicely Integrated into Windows.
Look at your desktop, that is an open copy of IE, look at your "My Computer" Also nicely integrated.
Even your recycle bin is.

Now go see how long IE 5.0 takes in Windows 3.1 Comapred to Netscape without quicklaunch

I reduced my boot time from 2 minutes down to 34 seconds by installing 98Lite and clean installing without any of the MS HTML engine and other misc. utilities (eg. MS Task Scheduler <-Urrrgh!).

Browser choice is such a heated issue. For me it mainly comes down to features. MSIE is so featureless. Opera is pretty good for features and definately excels erganomically, but Mozilla seems to be the king of functionality. I use Opera because it is so nippy and erganomic.

Opera shows pages more correctly than MSIE 6. This is a highly debated statement but I am almost entirely sure it is true. I am led to believe that when Opera doesn't show pages correctly it is because the markup is syntactically incorrect. I have no evidence to back this up, however if a page comes up wierd in Opera get w3c.org to validate the source; I expect it will turn out bad.

People ocassionally just design pages for MSIE, and often use code that only renders properly in MSIE, or worse, they use MSIE specific tags.

I don't use MSIE because I believe the Internet should not be run by companies, and certainly not  by a single corporation (with dubious business practices).

4.1 and 6.2 are now BOTH installed on my mom's computer at work, due to Communicator not having a feature that 4.1 has. And to fairly compare browsers, I used 6.2 to see what it was all about.

6.2 was nothing special. I don't see anything that great about it. 4.1 works BETTER than 6.2 really on that computer.

Back onto my main machine (XP), now that I have GoBack, I downloaded and installed Netscape 6.2. Ran defrag and restarted because "You must restart in order to use Netscape 6.2". Again, I was not that impressed to say "OH MY GOD, THIS ROCKS", it's just another browser, works good, doesn't crash, not bad. Netscape isn't so bad.

However... Netscape, without my choice, took over MY computer. It became the default program for HTML files, and now when I type "search stuff" in the toolbar in IE, I doesn't use google anymore, it uses Netscape Search!

This is BULL. I then went into GoBack and there it was, It DOES install the BDE player. Right then, I reverted my HD before it was infected with that crap. I don't want BDE on MY computer, no distributed advertising for me!

I suggest all you Netscape users to realize this BIG mistake, and go to brillantdigital.com and download the bdecleaner.exe to remove that shit.

Hey Jason... I almost posted some screen shots and then I realized my name was plastered all over my shells. Might want to think about that, but then maybe you don't care.  I like that new background. Where did you get it?
