Medievil Posted July 30, 2004 Share Posted July 30, 2004 i recommend firefox, but its all about ur personal taste the best thing you can do is try them all, and use then one that you like the most Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
semifamous Posted July 30, 2004 Share Posted July 30, 2004 Firefox is a browser. Mozilla is a browser and an email client and a chat program and a web page editor. Netscape has a browser and an email client and a chat program and a web page editor and AIM and Winamp and more bundled in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scorbing Posted July 30, 2004 Author Share Posted July 30, 2004 I have noticed that Netscape 7.1 loads faster than Mozilla 1.7.1. Why is that if Netscape has more so called "crap"? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ben Hur Posted July 30, 2004 Share Posted July 30, 2004 all 3 browsers use the geck engine. firefox is a nice light simple web browser (no email/chat/blablabla). mozilla is that but its a lot "heavier" even more so than IE, with email, irc, etc built in. netscape is just that with some more crap. firefox is the best of those 3 IMO though i use maxthon/myie2.

[ timko ] Posted July 30, 2004 Share Posted July 30, 2004 and all the 3 Browsers are based in the same core, the which is called GECKO You should try telling some of the firefox fanboys out there that and seeing how far you get. The standard response will be along the lines of "fug that shiz, get firefox" :D :fro: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ryan V Posted July 30, 2004 Share Posted July 30, 2004 Firefox is a stand-alone bare bone browser Netscape I belive is based off the Mozilla Suite with some extra AOL-TW Crap Mozilla is a suite of products including a e-mail, irc, WYSIWYG Editor, etc All of the three are based on the same gecko engine & I would recommend Firefox out of those three.

beanboy89 Posted July 30, 2004 Share Posted July 30, 2004 Like said above, they are simailar, based on the Gecko rendering enging. Mozilla is an applaction suite with a browser, mail/newsgroups, composer, and IRC cilent. Netscape is similar to Mozilla but with more bundled commercial applactions. Firefox is a light, stand alone browser, and can be used with Thunderbird, a stand alone mail/newsgroups client. Try all of them to see what you like the best, they're all good browsers.

Ultra Frosty Posted July 31, 2004 Share Posted July 31, 2004 The Gecko Engine follows the build #'s of the Mozilla Suite. Netscape 7.1 is based on Mozilla 1.0 and is loaded with lots of crap that is totally useless. Firefox is based on the latest release of Mozilla.

beanboy89 Posted July 31, 2004 Share Posted July 31, 2004 Netscape 7.1 is based on Mozilla 1.0 and is loaded with lots of crap that is totally useless. Actually Netscape 7.1 is based in Mozilla 1.4. Netscape 7.0 is based on Mozilla 1.0.1, and both Netscape 7.01 and 7.02 are based on Mozilla 1.0.2. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
