Netscape 7 is a discontinued Internet suite developed by Netscape Communications Corporation, and was the seventh major release of the Netscape series of browsers. It is the successor of Netscape 6, and was developed in-house by AOL. It was released on August 29, 2002 and is based on Mozilla Application Suite 1.0.
The browser in Netscape 7 was originally superseded by Netscape Browser (version 8) in 2005, which like its name suggests was simply a web browser and not a full Internet suite. Netscape 7's Mail & Newsgroups client was succeeded by Netscape Messenger 9 in 2007.
As of version 7.2, it consisted of the following major components:
a web browser
an e-mail and news client, Netscape Mail & Newsgroups
an address book
a HTML editor, Netscape Composer
an IRC client
an instant messaging client, AOL Instant Messenger
Radio@Netscape
