Apparently, Netscape programmers realized that later versions have become bloated. So, now they can update the old version without worrying about people complaining about dropped features. I'm on IE, myself.

    A lot of organisations like banks will allow connection using 4.7 but not 6. Aparently they are not happy with the security aspects of the newer browser.

    Ugh, I can't imagine ever using Netscape! I use IE, and it does piss me off now and then, but Netscape is such a slow pig. I can't imagine why anyone would want to use it.
