there's a knowledgable group of people here, and i dont know where else to ask.
i wrote to Netscape, but as you can imagine, i've yet to receive a reply
1st.. anyone use Netscape? v7.2 to be exact...
if not, i'll just delete this post in a day or tw2.
i'm using winXP pro, and i use Netscape. a couple weeks ago i upgraded to v8. mistake. 1st it no longer has an included email package. then i noticed some strange things happening in games that i hadnt seen before. to make a long story short, i uninstalled v8 (it was a stand-alone installation, its own folder and all)... well that seemed to go well until i opened v7.. i think it also deleted some other software, and i dont know what.
my homepage is comcast.net. it freezes and i get the little "error message" box (send report or not). after choosing either, netscape and all related windows (email) close. the system is ok.
but a couple other pages i visit have a similar reaction.
major league baseball (mlb.com) and a racing page (http://f1.gpupdate.net/en/)
what appears to be common reaction is all these pages have some advert that is movie like.
i checked my program folders and i have adobe flash v9 installed. but after that i'm stumped as to where to look, consider, install or have Netscape look for as a pluggin. i even reinstalled v7 but no joy.
i can access all the above pages normally using IE7.... but i like Netscape.
any ideas?
