**More Netscape SLIP Patch Info** -- We have more information
  about the recently released update to Netscape 1.1N (see 
  TidBITS-289_). First, the patch is intended for SLIP users, and
  shouldn't make any difference for users with PPP connections or
  direct Internet access. Second, the patch only applies to Netscape
  1.1N; users who purchased Netscape 1.1 and want the patch should
  download a copy of 1.1N and patch that version. So, if you use a
  SLIP connection and experience problems with Netscape 1.1, you
  might want to try the update. Be sure to keep an unpatched version
