Q4 loss for Netscape

Netscape is expected to report a large q4 loss, in the range of 80 million or so. Many analysts had expected Netscape to actually clear a profit from q4, with some estimates as high as 14 cents per share. Does this spell for more troubled times ahead?

Probably not. Netscape says that most of the loss comes from a series of one-time charges, and is not indicative of a growing problem within the preimer browser company. However, with its' shrinking grasp on the browser market, it would seem that perhaps Marc isn't sleeping quite as well.
