I'm still very much a newbie, but I'm wondering if anyone has successfully installed the Neoplanet Browser version for Linux. I installed it on Windoze just to check it out and I think it's pretty good actually. It's much smaller in size as compared to Netscape. (I've never really been a fa

I'm not sure if this will help, but I had this same problem (GNOME, RH 6.0, Netscape 4.61). After I installed the Blackdown 1.1.7 JDK (and put it in my PATH), Netscape now works flawlessly with Java. (Well, I haven't noticed any problems yet, and I develop applets as well). Hope this he
