Netscape 4.7x crashes when accessing the link . Mozilla is working somehow

"This presentation contains content that your browser may not be able to
show properly. This presentation was optimized for more recent versions of
Microsoft Internet Explorer."

Why ? I think most the users of PG are using xxxBSD, Linux therefore most
