Thanks for the help. I went with the above option. I stepped up to 4.75
though. I simply copied the netscape binary to the location of the
navigator-smotif.real binary and after backing it up renamed it. It
works nicely and now I have a 128-bit browser! I never would have
thought of that. I just have to remember to check it after doing an
upgrade every now and then.
