Woa, I just tried it with the Networld URL. It's the hard way! Click-click.
Box comes up. Click C: drive. Click Program Files. Click Netscape. Click
Navigator. Click navigator.exe. See Netscape splash screen come up. Wait.
Wait. Load many files.

It's neat that you can do this, but it's a stunt--not useful. I agree,
though, it will  get better; it will have to. Qualcomm and Netscape take
