What is Netscape? As far as I can tell, it's been reduced to nothing more than an ISP and it's new browser is just one more branded application. The new Netscape 8 browser that came out yesterday drew some attention early as it was going to be based on Firefox, but has drawn more attention in the last couple of days because it also uses the Internet Explorer engine for other sites. Less than a day after it has been released they have issued a security patch for it. It's really sad that such an important name in the history of the web has been reduced to a messed up browser shell put out by a net-zero competitor.
