Chode Posted August 16, 2004 Share Posted August 16, 2004 Hmm, try Here Sigh... Did he ask for a download link to Firefox? No! He asked for a download link for NETSCAPE 7.2 1) Read post 2) Re-read post 3) Think about post for 3 minutes 4) Think :rolleyes: @b3ta: The 7.2 folder at that ftp address is empty.

Droodles Posted August 16, 2004 Share Posted August 16, 2004 No, i was merely stating, in my own way, FireFox is much supieror to Netscape, a browser which pails in comparison to even Internet Explorer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jeffredo Posted August 16, 2004 Share Posted August 16, 2004 Netscape 7.2 is Mozilla 1.7 (the Gecko guts of Firefox). If you hate it, you hate your pet browser! ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deryck Posted August 16, 2004 Share Posted August 16, 2004 (edited) Mozilla Firefox doesn't really compare to Netscape since Mozilla Firefox is a browser and Netscape is a suite, more comparable to Mozilla. So if you can't find Netscape then you could use Mozilla 1.7.2. Edited August 16, 2004 by Deryck Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But yes, I was asking for Netscape 7.2 not mozilla. Thanks anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
krmathis Posted August 17, 2004 Share Posted August 17, 2004 I get the exact same error. They obviously have set wrong attributes on the folder! :( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chouzan Posted August 17, 2004 Share Posted August 17, 2004 The URL is dodgy, try ftp://ftp.netscape.com/pub/netscape7/english/ Even so, there appears to be no files in the directory reserved for the Netscape 7.2 release. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
reeve1 Posted August 21, 2005 Share Posted August 21, 2005 Hi, You need to go to the ftp site, so simply replace the http with ftp. ftp://ftp.netscape.com/pub/netscape7/english Then click the version and type until you get to the NSSetup. You can download nssetup and then execute it and it will install Netscape version 7.2. Hope this helps! Paul Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
