Ever occur to you that the modem wasn't connected to the ISP in the
first place? I use Netscape all the time when NOT connected. I have
about 100 megs of local HTML documents and I use Netscape as the
browser most of the time. Also we were talking about the Netscape
gold editor. It doesn't say anywhere in the doc's that you MUST be
connected to the Net or the editor will crash. I've never edited an
HTML document online, that would be truly insane. (not to mention
defeating the purpose of the "publish" feature).
