Netscape 7.02 Released!?

Posted September 14, 2004

It was about 15 months ago when I heard that Netscape was going to cease production on its browser, and the Mozilla project would break off and be a separate entity. ( In basic terms) Then this past week I heard that there was a new release of Netscape.

I was blown away. As I read more, I learned that Netscape is owned by AOL, which I found weird because the AOL browser is really a version of Internet Explorer. But the browser is driven by Mozillaâ€™s architecture, so the release isnâ€™t anything but a version of Mozilla.

Release August 18, the browser supposedly has been support for plugins and a pop up blocker.
