So I happily plodded along to the Netscape website and saw a little 'new download' button which I duly clicked. This took me to a download page without any obvious download link... I had to click on about thirty things before I found the page I thought I was looking for.
Selected the English UK version and waited for the download. Eventually started the install to be prompted: Iniciando la Instalacion... and then an error (I think).
Found a different download (which was apparently a later version than the latest version). Clicked download and received a 1k file which opened an MS-DOS cmd prompt which closed due to a 'terminal error'.
Few people would have persisted in the face of such adversity, but I battled on and went for the English (American?) version. Alas, an install that I could understand. The installer went on to download some additional files and, well, just sat there. The fourth time I ran the install it worked. Hoorah.
Well, I hope it was worth it. What chance do Netscape stand in the 'browser wars' if they can't get things as fundamental as that right. I can't imagine my frustration if I'd been downloading over a slower connection.
Very dissapointing.
Sounds like they are mirroring the efforts that it take to design for Netscape ;) Most people just give up.
Give up ... use something else.
You never now if we all close our eye, tap the heels of our feet it might just go away.
