Netscape

From Homestar Runner Wiki

There are numerous references to the once popular web browser Netscape by characters in the Homestar Runner body of work.

[edit] Appearances

• Email 2 years — The text at the bottom of Homestar Runner's Website claims the page is best viewed using "Nedscape 1.0 or lower".
• Email virus — The broken JPEG symbol on Bubs' mouth is the same one used in Netscape, as well as in the web browsers Mozilla and Mozilla Firefox, which were based on Netscape.
• Back Door Store Thank You Message — The page imitates Netscape and Mozilla's "missing plugin" placeholder.
• Quote of the Week — An extended version of the theme song intro has the line "When email comes to town, I know, I know, it's like a netscape hurricane".
