playing videos in netscape 7.1

well I have a problem with www.yahoo.com when I try to play their on-line music videos. Browser reports me this:

"To use this application with Netscape, you must use a 4.7x version. Download now.

Please use the following error code when writing to Yahoo! Help. (Error Code: 12) "

And on the www.sputnik7.com there is no such a problem.
What should I do to play it but not to switch to any other internet browser?
thx

 

It is up to you. I, personally, have stopped using Yahoo, because it refused to accept the existance of any Netscape past 4.79, or 4.8, and nothing has changed its viewpoint.
Many sites used to do that, but have slowly accepted the fact that NS7.1, and other similar browser do work after all.
The above fact, and also that Yahoo changed my settings when they changed over to charging for the privilege of getting their mail as POP3, allowing my account to practically explode with unwanted solicitations(and, without giving me a previous notice) has made Yahoo my number 1 enemy.
I may not care for some Microsoft or AOL policies, but I can do as want, otherwise. Yahoo is doing something different.
I have no use for Yahoo.

 

Welcome to the Forum, mzex!

Hi mzex,

When I tried to play a music video at the www.yahoo.com site, I received the same error as you.

When looking through the Help FAQ, I found this:

Not supported by LAUNCH:

* Netscape Navigator 5.6 and 6.0 or higher for PC or Mac
* Windows Media Player 9 Beta for PC
* Mac OS X

Is that is the only site that gives you problems?
