Netscape web browser has one month to live

Netscape Navigator
If you're one of the two or three people who still use Netscape Navigator as your primary web browser, we've got some good news. Well, kind of. Last month we reported that AOL (our parent company) would end support for Netscape Navigator on February 1st. Now it looks like that date has been extended by a whole month to March 1st.

If you've already got Netscape installed, it won't automatically stop working on March 1st. But AOL will no longer offer security patches or other updates after that point. So you should really think about switching to another we browser like Firefox, Internet Explorer, or Opera before then.

ZDNet is also reporting that AOL will push out at least one more update, with features making it easier for current Netscape users to make the transition to other web browses like Firefox or Flock.
