Not for me

Feedback Type:  Review

Product Platform: MacOSX

Used Product For: Less than a month

Recommend Product: NO

Myself, being a browser buff, don't rate Netscape. The same can be said for all of the Mozillas, bar Camino, which would be decent if smooth scrolling was available.
The problems I have with Mozilla are the add-ons. For example, the awful Flash/ad blockers, which don't work as they should. For example : the silly and ugly-looking Flash block 'f' that appears where an ad once was.
Safari, using Pith Helmet, is superb for blocking whatever you want to block ! Safari on my Intel iMac is, I hasten to add, the fastest at browsing the web.
And finally, forget Google (please !), and check out the below engine...........

Not for me - Jeff Mincey

Finding fault with a product on the basis of some of the third-party add-ons or plug-ins which other developers make available to it is preposterous and ignorant.

Netscape is a reliable and neat browser, and some M$-made pages look better in Netscape than they do in Safari.

Regarding ASK.UK - why use a Google-clone when the real thing is available - thanks but "not for me"

Look, you keep your Google. I am sick of people like you who pathetically churn out "Google this, Google that". You continue following the sheep.
