Netscape's new Web browser might be just the ticket. As of 8 a.m. PST Tuesday, Netscape fans were test-driving a prototype Netscape browser that runs on two different browsing engines: the Mozilla Foundation's Gecko engine, which powers up the Mozilla, Firefox and older Netscape browsers, and Microsoft's Internet Explorer engine, which many consider the de facto Web standard.Netscape's release of the prototype follows earlier reports that the AOL unit planned a comeback for the Mozilla-based browser and portal, as well as indications that the new browser would include some surprises under the hood.
