I used it a lil while ago and it was free.... Only used it cause it crashed slightly less then IE at the time (IE crashed every second webpage, netscape actually let me visit 10-20 pages before crashing)

Yes, netscape is free, and has been since January '99. But I just checked their website and see it's been taken over by aol and they are discontinuing development.

Last time I looked, NS8 looked pretty awful. I have no idea what NS9 would be like. I use 7.2

Well, I'm not going to detect browsers so I can switch fonts. Let FF fix their problem. Geez, it's only a font for goodness sakes.

its funny that both can't do it though, all this claim to greatness, and they cant display a wingding, its so ironic lol.
netscape was a decent browser, i had no issues with it

Well I wasn't asking you to fix that problem, because I knew that you gonna say that
