Post OT - Question about Greek fonts and Netscape 6.2

Have any of you who read Greek upgrade to Netscape 6.2 yet? I did and now I cannot get it to recognize greek fonts. I have SGreek, Symbol and SILGalatia installed and yet when I go to a page that specifies greek fonts I get a transliterated Latin font. Any ideas?

Yes, upgrade to a real browser like Internet Explorer.

Can you give me an example page? Aside from the silly comment by bug486, I have had no problems with displaying Unicode fonts in Mozilla (off of which Netscape 6.2 is based -- if I were you I'd try it out, mozilla.org it is almost ready for their 1.0 release)

I've glanced through my font preferences menu, and it appears to use Unicode, MacGreek, and Windows-1253.

As for "real" browser - Mozilla is far more W3C standard compliant then IE. (http://www.w3.org)
As an occasional webdesigner, it is so frustrating to not be able to use some CSS effect due to lack of IE compliance.
Then there's the fairly good MathML support.
