Mozilla in all the variants I have tried is incapable of even
reliably downloading a file -- sometimes it works and sometimes
it turns it into complete junk, usually 20 Mbytes bigger than
the original. Useless.
Many of the "secure" sites I need to use (banks, universities,
etc.) refuse to allow access from any release 6 browser.
Linux-netscape-4.7{6,9} handles everything I want, sometimes
with minor glitches, but well enough. And I can leave it
running for weeks at a time without problems. That's "good
enough" for me. The alternatives that I have tried either don't
build or don't work and that means they are worse.
