JM>Hello All!
JM>On Friday 27 June, 1997, IBM and Netscape released a new version of NS/2.
JM>It fixes several bugs to include the "famous" security bug.
JM>It may be obtained through the Netscape/2 web page or at IBM's FTP site
JM>(ftp://service2.boulder.ibm.com/software/netscape).  The file
JM>sizes are definately different.
To add to James' posting, here is a little script to help anyone that wants
to grab the U.S. English version. This will work from a command line as long
as you are logged on to your ISP.
*********[cut below and save as netscape.ftp]************
user anonymous (put your e-mail address here i.e. user@whatever.com)
cd software
cd netscape
binary
get os2en202.exe
get plugpken.exe
quit
**********[cut above]*******************
Then enter the following from a OS2 command line
FTP -n -i service2.boulder.ibm.com < NETSCAPE.FTP
You could put the above line an a command file and name it something like
getnetscape.cmd
This makes it easy to get these periodic updates until the file names
change.  When I found out about the new release, I just opened a OS/2
window and ran getnetscape.cmd. It sucked the files down with no further
intervention.  If you go to the web site you will find nothing that tell you
that they updated the files and kept the names the same.  Hursley also
issued a speed-up Java runtime as runtime.exe but the exact location escapes
me at the moment.  www.warpcity.com has a pointer.  The Java files are even
newer than the new netscape release and has the complete runtime package
along with programming classes. No problem so far with both of them
installed.
