Netscape is running sloooooow

<< < (2/3) > >>

ok I have A 350 Mhz G4 with 128 Mb RAM

Actual browsing with it is very fast, its just opening a new window (10 sec ???) and It will sometimes hang for no reason.

I'll try Mozilla once i reinstall Mac OS X (new hard drive    ) as it is not compatible with Netscape (i can't be bothered mucking around with it).

I think it is a memory problem because i ran a couple of programs and it slowed down very noticely

Im currently running fire

Thanks for the advise people, im getting some more RAM anyway.  ( 256 MB $120 )

I've found that Chimera, while unstable, is an excellent browser (built on the Moz core) and very, very fast. I believe Apple uses it for their demos.

the_black_angel:
Chimera is an exellent browser, using it now.

The only problem with it is that it cannot get into yahoo chat rooms. i want a browser that is fast and works is that so much to ask for??

As it is my mum that uses yahoo i think i will be using chimera from now on. it is much much faster than netscape.

ravuya:
Aren't the yahoo chat rooms compatible with IRC clients? At least, that's what I thought... but I don't know. I don't feel a need to talk to the scum and villany hives of newbies.

Zombie9920:
Dude, ditch Netscape 6 and go with Mozilla. In my opinion(and I'm sure alot of other people have the same opinion) Mozilla is alot faster and better than Netscape. I have never used Mozilla or Netscape on a Mac..so I'm speaking from experience with the PC/Win32 versions. Netscape has been and always will be utter crap.
