* Installation
Netscape Navigator Gold 3.01 is being distributed as a 32-bit and
16-bit windows program.
To run the 32-bit Navigator, you MUST have a 32-bit TCP/IP stack.

that you can setup.

self-extracting executable file into a temporary directory.

Running Netscape
=======================================================================
What do I need to run Netscape Navigator Gold?
You must have a direct Internet connection before you can use Netscape.
The ability to send and receive e-mail does not necessarily mean you
can run Netscape. There are three requirements for Netscape Navigator Gold:
1. A direct Ethernet connection to the net, or a dialup
SLIP or PPP account from an Internet service provider.
2. TCP/IP stack
3. Netscape Navigator Gold software
You can get a direct connection to the Internet through a service
provider in your area. You will need to get a SLIP or a PPP account
from an Internet provider (for a dialup account).
When you have full Internet connectivity, you need to have a TCP/IP
stack, dialer, and WINSOCK.DLL file.
If you get the error message "Cannot find WINSOCK.DLL" when running
Netscape Navigator Gold, this means your computer is looking for the
WINSOCK.DLL file that is part of a winsock package.
