Dr_Evil_Mouse Posted October 20, 2005 Report Share Posted October 20, 2005 This seems to happen to us every once in a while: our Netscape browser (8, this time) decides to reformat itself and erases all the bookmarks. Does this happen to anyone else? The mail reader did the same thing a while back, and while I've basically given up on both and have just installed a Mozilla browser, I'm still wondering wtf.

CyberHippie Posted October 20, 2005 Report Share Posted October 20, 2005 Some advice on Netscape.... Don't use it. If you do want to go that way though, Firefox is probably the better choice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

\/\/illy Posted October 20, 2005 Report Share Posted October 20, 2005 Why in the world would anyone use the Netscape browser? What do you think this is, 1999 or something? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr_Evil_Mouse Posted October 20, 2005 Author Report Share Posted October 20, 2005 Thanks, folks! Firefox installation: done! And there's something really satisfying about having used Netscape one last time to pull it down. I did like the layout of Netscape 8, though. What a pity.

You can make yer interweb thingy look real purty.There's a bunch of extensions there as well, but I don't really use them.Go to "get extensions and themes" here Edited October 20, 2005 by Guest Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bouche Posted October 20, 2005 Report Share Posted October 20, 2005 well guys, one of my favorite features is the RSS subscriptions. You can add feeds to your bookmark list. When you come across a page that is publishing an RSS feed, you'll see an icon at the bottom right of your Firefox window. Follow this link and you'll see it. Click on it, and subscribe. From there you'll have the latest posts listed in your bookmarks from teh Bittorrents Forum from here.I've begun utilizing XML feeds and there will be more coming from jambands.ca in the future.
