Actually, I used ta think MSIE was better than Netscape...UNTIL I 
downloaded the new Netscape 3.  It loads pages alot faster than IE and 
it actually handles other file types better.  I have actually had a 
web page lock my system because I was using MSIE, before.  That wuz 
why I DL'd Netscape in the first place.  Netscape handles Java 
better...  I haven't had any problems with it that I did with MSIE.  

Besides...Microsoft is way to big...  They are trying to take over the 
whole fuckin computer industry man!  Don't get me wrong, I like 
Win95...but I think they should stick to that and quit trying to delve 
out into realms where they have no business being...(Like browsers and 
computer games)
