Because of licensing issues, Debian doesn't distribute the actual Netscape program; just the installer. You need to download Communicator from Netscape's site, copy it to /tmp, then install the Netscape Debian package (you might need to rename the downloaded file as per the instructions during the install). This should get you going.
