Netscape v8 Poised For Release
Posted: 18th May, 2005 By: MarkJ
Described as being "significantly different" from an earlier beta version, AOL's Netscape v8 website browser is apparently about to be released. Developer blogs suggest that this could occur tomorrow:
A beta version of Netscape 8 has been available since early March. That version of Netscape was based on code from version 1.0 of the open source browser Firefox. At that time, AOL said the product would remain in a testing phase for at least several weeks.
One of the key promised features of the new browser is protection against phishing attacks emails that purport to come from trusted companies and lure users into providing personal details such as bank passwords or credit card information.
It remains to be seen whether tomorrows download materialises, although it had always been due for release around this time period. More @ ZDNet.
