Knowing a good thing when it sees it--or, rather, recognizing that 8,000,000 downloads is a hell of a lot more than the number of its new subscribers, AOL is going to use Mozilla's Firefox engine and release a new version of Netscape Navigator.
Microsoft is getting heat from every angle for letting its IE browser languish without a major upgrade in years, so AOL is jumping in by releasing not just one, but two browsers. In addition to Navigator, AOL Browser is based on IE but adds a few spicy extras, most effectively Firefox's and Opera's tabbed windows. Both browsers are expected to enter the new browser war by the end of the year
