I can corroborate this too; Actually just now Netscape got further than last time in legitimately getting to my online bank account, even so far as accepting the verisign certificate needed for authentification. The documentation with the account doesn't list linux or any of the Unixes in system requirements If they are worried about Linux as a hackers toolbox it must be possible to write a java applet to exclude it. It was a java "jar" that finally killed netscape. It seems not to be java per se that kills netscape.
