What was interesting is that I just installed the "latest" version of 
Netscape on my system.  I had to press the "yes" key several dozens of times. 
 Everytime it went to overwrite a file I looked to see if it was one of the 
files reported to have problems.  I might not install the "fix" released for 
Warp 4 for now.

I agree with this one totally.  I think that the install program should ask 
if you want to backup any system files that are overwritten so that you can 
back out of the install if problems occur.
