Default Who's using Netscape now, Cause I.E. Sucks

Yes, i recently switched over to netscape. It actually seems a tad faster than I.E. Well at least my pictures actually load up on the www. Netscape still has its problems with certain coded sites and i have lost some of my shortcut mouse functions.
Anyone else using Netscape?
or found the I.E. solution for the pictures?

I started using Netscape because it is a built-in popup blocker.
That's really nice.

I have the older Netscape 4.xx and I find it to be probematic. For me, IE is better. The newer version of Netscape must be much better?

Yes, it is, but it cant read webpages the same way I.E.
mainly because webdesigners code for I.E.

Realize that Mozilla is Netscape without all the add-on crap that AOL throws on. So instead of using Netscape I'd suggest to anyone to use Mozilla instead. You get a nice browser, and only a browser.

I used Netscape for about 5 years before I switched to IE about 3 years ago. I was tired of Netscape not showing websites properly...

I've always used Netscape, only use IE when absolutely necessary. Ever notice when some security problem or bug is reported, it is always IE? Or that almost all viruses attack Outlook? Gotta love Microsoft!
