Is there a way to make > the old netscape use a different directory? I'd file this as a bug against Netscape. I've dealt with a number of software packages which have an upgrade path but for which older versions may be required for various compatibility or interoperability reasons. Ultimately, mature products tend to go for configuration files of the form: "swpackage.version-number". JWZ, of course, recognized this problem a long time ago, you'll find some of his rants in the Netscape.ad file. -- Karsten M.
