| Netscape 7.0 Streamline and stand-alone IMPORTANT NOTICE This Netscape 7.0 Streamline distribution (by SillyDog701) is a compact and complete version, not a installer; you don't need internet connection during the installation. In other words, you don't need to download any more components. There is NO modification to the Netscape logo or default settings. No locking of any feature or preference. All the small modifications are listed below. The creation of this Netscape 7.0 distribution is based on the complete package of Netscape 7.0 from Netscape Communication Corp. Note, this page contains information about Netscape 7.0 Streamline, Netscape 7.01 Steamline is available. Streamline Features: * one single file, no extra downloads needed. * small filesize, only 41% of full package. Even smaller (32%) if choose Navigator stand-alone. Reduces the downloading time and trouble. (Full package from Netscape is 31.4MB) * no activation/registration. * extra help resourse listed in Help menu. (more info) * possible to install Navigator only or Navigator with Mail only without AIM. (notes) Download Locations: To download Netscape 7 Streamline or stand-alone, please read all information on this page first.
Details of components included:> Update: Netscape 7.02 Streamline (English) available. > Also available: 7.02 Streamline Japanese, Japanese version also available.

All components in Navigator 7.0 standalone and Netscape7.0 Streamline are selectable during installation except Navigator. *Instant Messenger (or AIM) is included and is necessary for Netscape Mail to integrate with Netscape WebMail; you can select not to install AIM and access your Netscape WebMail via web interface (browser). Instant messenger contains AIM (or called NIM) and ICQ. (extra information) If you decide to install Navigator and Mail components but deselect Instant Messenger (AIM): Firstly, it is perfectly all right to do so, but remember you won't be able to use those components (the standalone AIM or from previous versions won't work). Secondly, you should manually remove Buddy List from your My Sidebar, that tag would simply not work. Thirdly, the Netscape WebMail in your Mail would not work. Do not use use integrated WebMail feature. PLEASE NOTE: The Silly Dog 701 distribution is designed for easier downloads with smaller (selected) all-in-one package. If you want to install above missing components in the future, please download Netscape 7.0 (full) by Netscape Communication Corp. You can find related information about this distribution at http://sillydog.org/narchive/ Silly Dog 701 shall hold NO responsibility to all damages, data lost, any undesired results, or any kind of lost resulting by installing this package. Small Additions by Silly Dog 701  * There is a link from Help menu which will link to Browser Archive Message Forum
(http://sillydog.org/forum/) where you can ask all your questions about Netscape.* SillyDog701 Sidebar (as shown on the right) is included by default, this can be easily removed. (Note: only apply to new profile users) See benefits of SillyDog 701 Sidebar. * Additional Silly Dog 701 bookmarks (as shown below) in your default bookmark file, again this can be easily removed (Note: only apply to new profile users)  FAQ: What is CCK? CCK stands for Client Customization Kit, which is available from Netscape for orginations to create and distribute unique, customized versions of Netscape browser, including changes to the familiar browser component, Netscape Navigator. Are those distribution legal? Yes, they are under Netscape Client Customization Kit License Agreement and Netscape Browser Distribution Program License Agreement. What are the benefits of obtaining those distribution to the original Netscape distribution? They are compact, smaller downloading sizes, download-once (not installer), faster installing. What are those distribution designed for? For people who don't want to install Mail and Newsgroup features (such as people only use web-based mail accounts or public internet access terminals), Navigator stand-alone is the best choice. For public internet access terminals. For people want the reduce the downloading time, and do not want to install full load of programmes. For people who already have RealPlayer installed in their system. What features has been disabled in those CCKed version? None, no features has been disabled, no functions has been locked, no change of Netscape logo, no modification to default bookmarks. Please note that some components mentioned above are not included in the package. In fact, you will have an extra entry in the Help menu, which will point you to Netscape Browser Archive Forum for asking questions. What if I want to use Sun Java™2 Plug-in? No problem. You can go to Sun's Java website and download the plug-in. Then your Windows and Netscape 7.0 will have the latest Java™ 2 Standard Edition Runtime Environment. This method will ensure you having latest Java™2 Runtime Environment for your Netscape 6, Netscape 7 and 4.78 (and above), and MSIE. OR you can download the complete package of Netscape 7. What if I need to use multimedia features such as RealPlayer, Winamp, Viewpoint Media Player or Net2Phone? Easy, there are many ways to use those multimedia features. (1) if you already have them, just don't uninstall them and Netscape will automatically use their plug-ins (assume your previous installation is functioning) (2) if you have them installed from previously Netscape, just don't un-install them, the Netscape Streamline will use them. (3) if you don't have them in your computer, you can download them individually from their website. This way, you will more likely to get the most recent version of RealPlayer, Winamp or Net2Phone. (recommended) (4) or you can download the full package of the Netscape 7.0. Will this be faster than the Netscape's distribution? Yes and no. No change to the browser engine at all (as mentioned previously), however there will have less applications associated to Netscape and file sizes are smaller, which might lead speed improments. The streamline Netscapes will definitely speeder and easier to install, and much easier to transfer to other computers or for friends. Known issues? Well, all know issues with complete package of Netscape 7.0 (with Navigator etc components) should still in the Streamline version. There are reports said some problems appearing in complete package does not appear in our Streamline version. During the testing period, the usage report is pretty good. However if you have any problems, please do not hestate to report it. Who is allowed to use this software? Basically everyone is allowed, and this software is free to all. HOWEVER, NETSCAPE 7 END-USER LICENSE AGREEMENT does not allow following people to use this product. (Excerpt from NETSCAPE 7.0 END-USER LICENSE AGREEMENT) 12. EXPORT / IMPORT.

No, if you really want to know more details about this distribution. Here it goes. As required by the CCK license, I need to insert an identifier string to the browser identifier (UserAgent string), this string is not used for tracing at all. There is a text string "SillyDog" in your browser's identifier (HTTP_USER_AGENT string). Again, this is a CCK build, however unlike other distributions, there is no branding nor locking of any functions/settings at all. I have more questions.
