Netscape 8.0 review

Saturday 26 November 2005, 1:06 AM

the step from NS 7.1 is awkward and icky


how to put bookmarks into a toolbar is still a question. I could build a new toolbar with sub-bars, but could not put bookmarks into them, even following directions to use bookmark manager. yuk. NS did this before with 6.0 and I had to hang on to 4.7 until 7.0/7.1.

the security features are nice, but where did my nice mail handler from 7.0 go?

Verdict

We like Netscape 8's customisation features and its emphasis on security; however, we wish this new version included the native RSS support found in Apple's Safari RSS.
