Yup F11 ... I call it "instant Big Screen"

codexaenir...

maybe you don't need to use it because you probably have a 19" monitor or bigger ... either that or you just like using your scroll mouse more than you need to.

Hewee ...

Why do you punish yourself with Netscape?

I hate I.E. DS so Netscape is better. Faster also and I get less ads and less pop ups with Netscape. So why would I want I.E.?

Coz... IE Rocks and you wont have Netscrapes, besides hewee what if AOL bought Netscape out or something? .. huh huh huh... then what?

Free AOL online for anyone runnin Nescape

DS

Use some ad blockin sotware and get on DSL no more ads no more pop-ups and it cruises without jams.

DS, I can do that with Mozilla pretty easily. It has a built in pop-up stopper, and there is a free banner ad blocker that incorporates right into the Browser itself.

Let's see, you can use tabbed browsing, it has the ability to pipeline downloads without a registry hack, it has full search capabilities right from the address bar, you can highlight any text on the internet and search it without having to open up a search engine, if it craps out, it cannot take all of windows with it. Just reinstall it and you can go, and in some cases, just recreating the profile allows it to just march on down.

It also incorporates the f11 fullscreen mode (which the Netscape 4 series does not).

For fast, use Opera

For comfort and ease of use, use Netscape 4.8

For great features, use Mozilla 1.0/Netscape 7

For lazyness, use IE

Oh yeah, there are some pretty cool skins for it and unlike hotbar, even the buttons are changeable.
