I hate to see this, but someone sholesale stone the Winamp skin that comes with the Winamp bundled with Netscape 4 and 6, and posted it as theirs. I'm fairly sure it's not his and NS used it, because NS was using it a year before it's marked as being published.

Can you provide any links to where the original might be located?

I don't use NS, and I'm unwilling to download a huge installer to check if there is a skin in it that someone may or may not have ripped.

Any reviewer type people use NS?

Well, the BEST I can do for you is to point you to their FTP. The skin itself is bundled with WinAmp 2.75. Here's alink to the version that comes with Netscape 6.2 (for example).

ftp://ftp.netscape.com/pub/netscape6/english/6.2/windows/win32/xpi/winamp275.zip

That's about 1.6 megs. You MAY have to install it, unless you can unpack the Nullsoft installer data. At worst, you install it and then reinstall 2.78 when you're done. :)

Now, I CAN link a copy of the skin I pulled from my copy of NS6.0 when I DLed it, but since YOU can't guarantee I'm not lying (I'm not though), it's probably best to DL it from NS.

Confirmed, the original skin was packed with the 2.75 release taken from the Netscape ftp site.

Rip removed. Thank you for bringing this to our attention.
