yes, however it requires a bit of effort to get in there and working, thoug
less effort than uit takes to get ssl working in mozilla I have found.

netscape communicator 4.7 is available also. in rpm format, ofcourse the
alien tool will convert it to a deb happily, this is what I did.
wget tp://ftp.linuxppc.org/linuxppc-1999/software/notfree/netscape-4.7-1.ppc.rpm
apt-get install alien
alien --to-deb netscape-4.7-1.ppc.rpm
dpkg -i nameofgenerateddebppackage.deb

hmm, I dont strike that fortunately, I find the thing that is harder to get
working in mozilla is the ssl anyway, and such sites really do need 128 bit ssl.
