Browser tangle
I need to use both Mozilla and Netscape for separate local operations -
one for graphics only and one for a display with sound. (The two are related only indirectly.) How can I untangle Netscape from Mozilla? That is, how can I make it use its own profile setup and not change Mozilla when I change Netscape? That is again, I need Netscape set up in a window about 3 inches square and I need it to not screw around with my normal Mozilla screen. I uninstalled Netscape and ran a custom installation, but it never even asked if I wanted it to lock into Mozilla.

You would be better off asking in a Netscape newsgroup as your question has
nothing to do with apps that ship with W98 nor setting up W98. http://ed.mullen.home.comcast.net/Mo...z_news_ns.html -- Regards Ron Badour, MS MVP for W98 Tips: http://home.satx.rr.com/badour Knowledge Base Info: http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?pr=kbinfo wrote in message ...

You are asking about Netscape products which have nothing to do with the
operating system. I am suggesting that you ask your Ford questions at a Ford dealer instead of calling a Chevy dealer. It makes sense to go where the experts are for your particular question. The link I gave you gives you Netscape newsgroups. -- Regards Ron Badour, MS MVP for W98 Tips: http://home.satx.rr.com/badour Knowledge Base Info: http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?pr=kbinfo wrote in message ...

But if you are the guardian of the definition of _set up_ and that definition specifies that no one can _set up_ anything on a windows computer but system specific masochisms, then I offer you many of my deepest and heartfelt genuflections and basest grovelings, so you can, in return, offer them to Poor Willie. With incense, of course. If, on the other hand you would be glad to answer _set up_ questions about Internet Explorer and are just PO'd about anyone who would use anything not sanctified by the gods of Microsoft, I offer you the sage admonition once spoken by an old Native American on a reservation in South Dakota many, many years ago. "Up your nose with a rubber hose." Take your pick, but don't tell me there is no _set up_ involved in _setting up_ a browser that is told by the system HOW it must be _set up_. It's bad enough having to use a smelly system like windows without having to be blessed out by pseudo-elitist ex-spurts.

I thought the Ford/Chevy analogy would make it clear but it obviously
hasn't. I don't care where you ask questions--period, end of subject. I pointed out that your questions were solely related to a particular non-MS product and that if you want the best chance of getting an answer, go where the experts on that product hang out and ask them. Do what you want but I suggest you drop your attack mode or no one will want to help. -- Regards Ron Badour, MS MVP for W98 Tips: http://home.satx.rr.com/badour Knowledge Base Info: http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?pr=kbinfo wrote in message ...
