Aren't we better off with Warpzilla (the open source Mozilla) anyway ? I think that
may be the only one of the new 'zillas that will work with the Innotek FLASH player .
. . and possibly have some way of accomodating some of the plugins we had for NS 4.61
?

The main thing that is stopping me from trying it out is the need for Java 1.3, but
that issue will go away when I finally get ECS installed. To start *relying* on a new
browser, though, I would like to first have heard compelling reports from others that
it has reached the point of being at least as fast and as stable as 4.61.

On another browser matter, have any of you gone to websites that suddenly drive your
cpu-meter up to 98% utilization, slowing everything to a crawl, and making it
difficult just to get out of there in one piece ? (I could give you a couple sample
URLs.) What can a site be putting into their pages to cause this ? Is this a case of
their doing proprietary MickeySoft things that give our browsers conniptions ?
