I, too, like to keep my email and browser separate.  Having said that,the
Mozilla folks who programmed the engine that drive Netscape and Mozilla have
released a new browser called 'Firebird,' a standalone browser.  It looks and
feels very much like Mozilla and Netscape but is much faster and you install
extensions, which add versatility and flexibility to the browser.  You can
find more information at: http://www.mozilla.org. There are versions
availiable for Windows, MacOSX and Linux.
