Disable Annoying Netscape Registration |

After installation, Netscape
may try to connect to a Netscape Registration server to register the
software, but this server is no longer available. How do you disable
this annoying behavior?
There are two possible scenarios. The first is to delete or rename the file activation.dll found in: (NS6) C:Program Files\Netscape\Netscape 6\components OR (NS7) C:Program Files\Netscape\Netscape\components. You can alternately use the Search function to look for activation.dll and delete it from the list once it is located. The
second solution (for Netscape 6) is to use your Windows Explorer or
Search command to locate the file all-ns.js which is typically found
under the C:Program Files\Netscape\Netscape 6\defaults\pref folder. You can
open the all-ns.js file with Notepad and change the following entry: pref("browser.registration.enable", true); to look like this: pref("browser.registration.enable", false); |
