Well, as far as I remember from the last time this came up, netscape
versions for Sparc Linux only went up 4.5. And it was supposed to be
available at ftp://ftp.netscape.com/pub/communicator/english/4.5/unix/unsupported/linux20_sparc_glibc2/complete_install/.
Check the list archives for details.
As for mozilla, new versions are available in unstable and testing now
(though I think they're still in non-US). I would suggest trying a new
version of mozilla, (though you might have to upgrade to testing
to do it). Newer versions support https and a lot of other stuff that
wasn't in M18.
