Stony Stevenson writes "AOL has released its last ever update for Netscape Navigator and is encouraging its remaining users to switch to Flock or Firefox. Users will be able to download the last major upgrade but when it's accepted and run, a notice will appear, denoting the end of support date and the recommendations of Flock and Firefox. The pop-up offers users download links to a choice of the Flock or Mozilla's Firefox browser. Netscape diehards will be able to stick with the browser by clicking 'Remind me later' and 'Stay with Netscape' buttons. But as of the end of February no further updates or security patches will be added."

  • Thanks for the memories of late 90's interweb Netscape, I spent many a late night gazing at your shapely buttons browsing with my blazing fast 56k modem. And thanks for the code, which only took multiple years to completely rewrite and turn into Mozilla Firefox. So long!
Down with categorical imperative!
