Netscape had a major security problem recently with it's JPEG renderer
so it is definitely advisable to get the latest version which is not
vulnerable to this and a number of other problems (4.75 for memory).
Incidentally, I've always found that running the version packaged for my
distribution gives unreliable results so I always download the .tar.gz
from Netscape and install this into /usr/local -- from my own experience
this has proved much more reliable.  Of course, YMMV.
