Yep.  I've found Mozilla to be more enjoyable.  And, most of the plugins
for Netscape 4.x actually work, just move 'em on over.  0.8.1 came out
recently and it's much faster than 0.8.

But, it's still a bit of a memory hog, and I haven't tried to get Java
going yet.

Yep.  For all it's own wierdness, IE is a rather good browser.

I've tried Opera, and it's very slim.  I didn't like the interface for
4.0, but I see 5.0 is out so I'll try that myself.  I end up having to use
the one statically linked to Qt, however.
