Updating Customers: Netscape will provide the fix for Export (40 bit) versions of Netscape Navigator later this week for downloading by customers on the Internet. Similarly, the Commerce Server patch for Export versions (40 bit) will be made available from our home page. Because downloading of 128 bit versions of the software is still not permitted by U.S. law, U.S. customers of Netscape Navigator, Netscape Navigator Personal Edition and Netscape Commerce Server using 128 bit versions can request the replacement from Netscape for delivery through the regular mail.
Funny, MIT and MPJ and others manage to enable the downloading of export-controlled software. Also, wasn't there some sort of promise by Netscape after we broke the 40-bit version to make the 128-bit version available to US users under the Beta/freeware system? What happened to that plan?
