Hey! That would be damn good! Netscape is not really part of AOL, if they don't call themselves a subsidary of AOL! And that's good because damn AOL always messed up my PC, but Netscape is very strong and stable!

What would be good is AOL just disappearing completely.

Exactly, but I hope the subsidaries, like Netscape, Spinner, and TimeWarner get freed!

Ya! I'd hack into every system that has AOL and delete it on them, plus I'd shut down all of the AOL servers!

Without AOL, I don't think Netscape browsers would be around for very long. V. 6 was pathetic.

I don't really care about AOL, and why should I?
It's funny to see stupid newbies on TV saying "AOL is eeeeeeeaaaaaaaaasssssssssssyyyyyyyy" because that's the only thing AOL can offer

I didn't like Netscape 6 at all! Netscape 4.77 was a heck of a lot better! And Mozilla, which looks like Netscape 6, is also more stable! But then again, Netscape doesn't use the latest Mozilla release!

I love CNN. Second only to BBC World News. Which other network has so much coverage?

CNN is horrible- the only respectable person on CNN is Wolf Blitzer- the rest of their people are garbage.

FOX News Channel has overtaken them in ratings for a reason

Now is the time for all good Americans to come to the aid of their Country

I don't think aol has much power over Winamp, actually. If they did we'd be seeing ads on every single skin

Netscape WAS strong and stable... Then AOL came along and made Netscape 6 be just as weak as AOL... Sigh.

I agree! Netscape 6 was the 4th shittiest program, after IE, AOL, and Windows Media Player!

The only reason I don't use Netscape is because IE is quicker in the end... Not only because NS6's engine is slower, but because IE is integrated into the Windows environment, but you have to wait for NS to load. If they'd speed NS up, I'd switch... I like your list of shittiest progs, very true!
