AOL, one of the World's pioneering Internet Service Providers, is planning to end support for one of the World's most pioneering software corporations, Netscape Communications. Under this, all Netscape products will cease to be supported and no updates will any longer be provided on 1 FEBRUARY 2008, leaving thousands of Netscape users without basic security requirements or formal migration instructions.

The Netscape Communications Corporation was incorporated in 1994, led by Marc Andreessen, the chief architecht of the World's first popular web browser, Mosaic. The company has been most well known for its internet browsing and e-mail software, including Netscape Navigator, Communicator, Messenger, Composer, Calender and Collabra, and had well over 60% of the web browser shares throughout most of the 1990's.

AOL failed the company miserably, by laying off most of the staff, releasing half-completed software, outsourcing, closing portals, removing names, removing funding and lastly removing the mat from under the User's feet after a brief period of increasing awareness and improvements in the company.

We feel we won't let Netscape go out quietly. Just by signing our petition and showing your support for the World's most influencial, well-known and adopted browsers, we aim to discourage AOL from committing yet another horrific crime to the computing world.
