I also think that in Netscape their existance is an indication that the managment at Netscape is a bit less uptight than management at some other places.
Depends on the department. They have at least one manager at Netscape with a permenent case of high blood preasure. (He happens to be in charge of the support department.)
I didn't know about the FishCam Easter Egg, but I know that Netscape has a couple of Easter Eggs related to the activity indicator in the top right of the display. Typically this is the Big N logo with animated meteors, etc. flying by when the window is active. One Easter Egg temporarily turns this into a compass which spins to indicate activity. Another causes the animation to show a dragon (Mozilla) breathing fire for the remainder of the session. I won't spoil your fun by telling how to find them.
If he is not running X Windows, he is going to be searching along time for the Compass easter egg. You also need X windows to find the Mozilla animated icon hack on Jammie Zawinski's page. Which easter eggs that are available is dependant on which client you are running. obNetscapeHack: There is a feature called a "cookie file" in Netscape that is ripe for exploitation as a security leak. If you are using a Netscape server (and you may not even need that), you can feed all sorts of information into it without the user's knowlege. I have heard of one page that overloads the cookie file until the machine runs out of drive space. I am sure that there are other exploitable holes there...
