The Bottom Line We like Netscape 8's customization features and its emphasis on security; however, we wish this new version included the native RSS support found in Apple Safari RSS. Although technically a prerelease, Camino is a compelling alternative to Safari, and it's faster and more feature-filled than IE. If only for the speed, lightness of being, and security alone, Firefox remains our Editors' Choice for best Internet browser. Firefox's tabbed browsing, RSS support, security features, and overall cool factor make it more attractive than Internet Explorer. There's no practical reason to switch to Netscape from either IE or Mozilla. But Netscape 7.01's reintegrated pop-up suppressor will draw no-nonsense surfers.
