In addition to the Netscape Navigator browser, Communicator includes a
complete set of tools for effective everyday communication. Features

offline use, fully operational roaming support, and a Quotes Anywhere
feature that allows you to access stock quotes via your Netcenter
portfolio.
Version 4.7 now includes the Winamp MP3 player and is certified as Y2K
compliant. Other new features include a Netscape Radio service that allows
you to listen to live radio stations, and a new Shop toolbar button that
provides quick access to the Netcenter Shop@Netscape area. In addition,
version 4.7 includes an assortment of bug fixes; several security updates;
new 56-bit DES ciphers; a simplified process for obtaining digital
certificates; and the latest versions of Real Player G2, AOL Instant
Messenger, and the Shockwave and Flash players. Be sure to take advantage
of Netscape's Quality Feedback System for bug reporting.

Internet Explorer 5.0, the latest in this Web browser line, includes
support for Dynamic HTML, Java, and the Channel Definition Format (CDF),
and adds many new enhancements and features. AutoSearch now lets you
choose your search engine and display search results in different ways.
For example, you can choose to be redirected automatically to the
best-matched site. In the history box, you can now sort the list of sites
by date, site, most visited, or order visited. The new AutoComplete
feature displays a drop-down list of matching sites when you start to type
a URL in the address bar. AutoComplete also works with Web forms,
displaying a list of previous entries when you start to type in a field on
a Web site. To automate login processes even further, you can also now
save usernames and passwords for particular sites. Enhancements have been
made to the Content advisor, making it easier to restrict access to sites
based on content. Cross-platform support has also been enhanced, and
several automation features have been added. Another new feature in 5.0 is
the Radio Toolbar, which allows you to listen to radio stations over the
Internet as you browse. IE also allows you to select the default email,
calendar, newsgroup, and HTML editors of your choice. You can even
designate your Web-based email provider as the default email program.
- Setup notes: IE
5.0 features Active Setup (a 465K file), which requires that you maintain
your Internet connection after you double-click ie5setup.exe. Microsoft
recommends that you uninstall any preview releases of this software before
installing the latest version. Active Setup will prompt you to choose
among various IE packages; these range in size from 6MB to 45MB, with a
typical install of 17.2MB.
