==================================================================
Running Netscape
==================================================================
What do I need to run Netscape Navigator?
You must have a direct Internet connection before you can use
Netscape. The ability to send and receive e-mail does not
necessarily mean you can run Netscape. There are three
requirements for Netscape Navigator:
1. A direct Ethernet connection to the net, or a dialup
SLIP or PPP account from an Internet service provider.
2. TCP/IP stack
3. Netscape Navigator software
You can get a direct connection to the Internet through a service
provider in your area. You will need to get a SLIP or a PPP
account from an Internet provider (for a dialup account).
When you have full Internet connectivity, you need to have a
TCP/IP stack, dialer, and WINSOCK.DLL file.
If you get the error message "Cannot find WINSOCK.DLL" when
running Netscape Navigator, this means your computer is looking
for the WINSOCK.DLL file that is part of a winsock package.
==================================================================
International
==================================================================
The Netscape installer will overwrite existing OLE2 DLLs with the
latest versions for US Windows.This will not affect 32-bit
Windows. For 16-bit Windows, the only difference between the US
and the Japanese versions are the internationalization of error
strings. Occasionally, the Japanese user may see an English
language OLE2 error message after installing Netscape. Currently,
there are no Japanese versions available for the OLE2 DLLs.
Netscape is working with Microsoft to make the Japanese version
of the OLE2 DLLs available.
