    Communicator? Now there's a blast from the past. I still don't get Netscape was abandoned and FIREFOX took its place.
    That's a sore subject with me! When I signed up with a company that had dial-up internet, I had to buy netscape to connect with them. Now the ver
    I bought wasn't in, they said it'd be in in a week or so. It came in, I p it up and he said that now, it's kinda obsolete, because Internet Explorer could be downloaded for free with a dialer that made netscape useless. No didn't refund my money I forked out on Netscape, didn't offer to give me a of Explorer for free, etc. A week later, Netscape announced it was now completely free! About a year later, that company was bought out by anoth company, and shortly afterwards it went out of business completely.


    At the time a thought Netscape was the best! I did abandon it once they started charging for it. ;-)
