other newsreaders and none of them handle as well as Netscape Messenger
for browsing newsgroups.
With the (evidently) demise of Netscape (which I used for many
years) someone put me on to SeaMonkey which is a development
of Netscape and behaves the same way for browsing but does
now work with some of the "movie things" that didn't on my
Netscape. So that is what I've been using for a year or so
now.

Netscape isn't really gone. It has just been transformed into the
vastly bloated new program Firefox. The trend sickens me. Firefox
takes up 100MB of memory just loading itself any more. Feh!
That said, it still beats MS Internet Exploder.

"Chrome" seems to work well enough if you need something high speed and
of minimal size.

"First Law of Leftist Debate
The more you present a leftist with factual evidence
that is counter to his preconceived world view and the
more difficult it becomes for him to refute it without
losing face the chance of him calling you a racist, bigot,
homophobe approaches infinity.

This is despite the thread you are in having not mentioned
race or sexual preference in any way that is relevant to
the subject." Grey Ghost
