“Netscape 6, Powered by the Netscape Gecko Browser Engine,
Provides Compelling Web Experience Across Multiple Platforms.”

“Netscape Communications, a subsidiary of America Online, Inc.
(NYSE:AOL), today announced the worldwide launch of its
next-generation Netscape 6 browser, offering consumers a new
choice, with unmatched convenience, the ability to stay connected
to important information and unprecedented flexibility to shape
their online experience to fit the ways they live, work, and
communicate.”

Netscape 6 “breaks the mold” by letting consumers choose how
they use the Internet throughout their daily lives. Rewritten from
the ground up in an open source environment, it is a completely new
browser with significant enhancements to Netscape’s popular
Internet suite of applications, including Netscape Navigator,
Netscape Mail, Netscape Instant Messenger powered by AOL Instant
Messenger, and Netscape Composer, as well as an array of new
features and innovations. The streamlined new look also makes it
faster, easier and more convenient to find and use the features and
services consumers rely on most.”
