Are other users having trouble subscribing when their browser is Netscape? I get nothing but a blank screen after it eats my credit card data. I’ve got Netscape 6.2.1 (if it matters). Am I going to be forced into the products of the Redmond Collective just to stay on SDMB? Please say it ain’t so. (Last time I messed with Msoft stuff there were weird things, like dancing paper clips, WITH EYES no less . Please let me stay in my happy Unix/Netscape world, OK?) Pullin ---

Haven’t heard of any problems specifically attributed to Netscape. The blank screen sounds like server load problem. Try again.
