I have heard that Netscape uses Mozilla. Is that correct?

It's probably more accurate to say that Mozilla "uses" Netscape, depending on your definition of "use".

Mozilla is actually a "fork" of Netscape's browswer. Netscape released the source, and the open source community moved forward with it.

Mozilla is the result. There is a complete suite that is similar to the original netscape, and there are also beta versions of a new browser (Firefox) and email client (Thunderbird) available for download/evaluation.

You can tell I am not "tech savy" when it comes to browsers. Is Mozilla and Netscape more secure than MS IE browsers?
