Because of licensing issues, Debian doesn't have the Netscape binary; it does have a .deb installer that will install the Netscape binary and register it with dpkg, etc. You will need to download the Netscape binary yourself, from [www|ftp].netscape.com; I've always had more success with ftp. You'll have to drill down through the directories (pub, then ...english...etc, etc...) to the correct file (something like "communicator-4.7-linux-glibc-tar-can-this-filename-be-any-longer-tar.gz") and download it (don't forget to "bin" before "get"). Put this file in the /tmp directory, then either do an "apt-get install netscape4" or dselect the netscape4 package. Voila! U R done.
