Bottom line: Don't use IE for anything you value -- online banking, etc.

I was a confirmed Netscape user. Until it began crashing for no reason, bringing down the entire PC. I uninstalled it, downloaded a fresh copy, installed it. Same problem.

Eventually I reformatted the HD, installed a new copy of Netscape; same problem.

Querying Netscape "technical support" was like talking to the Sphinx, except that the Sphinx is more talkative.

Finally I threw up my hands, installed IE and have never had a problem.

Zone Alarm Pro, McAfee, and other tools keep me deloused; I install "critical updates" as they appear.
