I personally think Netscapes behaviour at getting files is a real PIA
(no, that's not parallel interface adapter). Netscape 2 did it right
most times but with N3 even shift-clicking the thing results in damaged
downloads of .gz or other files requiring binary download.
Am I just doing something wrong? I hate to waste keystrokes by having to
going to ftp and connecting to my firewall proxy then to the host ...
