Netscape Navigator
This article is about the original Netscape Navigator product, versions 1 to 4.08. For the new 2007 release, see
Netscape Navigator 9, or for a full list of Netscape software releases, see
Netscape (web browser). Netscape Navigator, also known as Netscape, was a
proprietary web browser that was popular during the 1990s. Once the
flagship product of
Netscape Communications Corporation and the dominant browser in
usage share, its user base had almost completely evaporated by
2002, partly due to the inclusion of
Microsoft's
Internet Explorer web browser with the
Windows operating system, but also due to lack of significant innovation after the late 1990s. Netscape's demise was a central component of
Microsoft's antitrust trial, where the court ruled that (among other things) bundling Internet Explorer with Windows was an illegal
monopolistic business practice.
