which probably means this is the last secunia advisory (secunia.com/advisories/29049/) regarding Netscape browsers.

Rating: Highly critical

Description:
Netscape has acknowledged some weaknesses, a security issue, and some vulnerabilities in Netscape Navigator, which can be exploited by malicious people to disclose sensitive information, bypass certain security restrictions, conduct spoofing attacks, or to compromise a user's system.

Solution:
Update to version 9.0.0.6: browser.netscape.com/downloads or try Firefox.
