Netscape uses the Mozilla kernel, gecko, and as a result has the same
problems as Mozilla. I am not familiar with Opera, but do recall that some
people have reported faults in rendering pages on certain sites. How true
that is, I can't say from personal experience.

The financial sites I use and have trouble with are the three banks I use
and the brokerage house I do business with. I don't recall if I had any
problems with Bloomberg when using Netscape and gecko. Probably not.
