When was that the case? As far back as I remember (admittedly not as long as many), Netscape has been in non-free directly, not in installer form. 'apt-get install communicator' should be fine now. There are a number of other packages that do work that way: realplayer is the one that comes to mind most quickly, along with a few games. Cheers, -- Colin Watson [EMAIL PROTECTED]
