Thanks for your reply. I've gone through and looked at everything
under EDIT|PREFERENCES but I can't find anything useful there. I
tried changing "online" to "ask", then telling it either "work
online" or "offline" and then FILE|GO-ONLINE but still to no avail.
Meanwhile IE, mail, and news are all working fine (none of them
through Netscape).
Is there any particular Netscape option that might affect this?
I've also since un-installed NS4.7 again, then re-installed it on a
different drive, in case it was failing to overwrite a corrupted
file on install. But still no luck.
Any additional suggestions will be appreciated.
Thanks!
