Do-It-Yourself Netscape Compact

You can easily 'Compactify' your Netscape 7 version. No magic involved. Just follow these steps:
  1. Install official Netscape Base using "Custom Install", carefully selecting which item you'd like to have installed.
  2. Install the Mouse Gestures: http://optimoz.mozdev.org
  3. Install Home Button: http://home.no.net/trihand/mozilla/home/en/
  4. Install ROT-13 support: http://www.pinkroom.biz/owl/minirot13/
  5. Install Message-ID-Finder: http://messageidfinder.mozdev.org/
  6. Install Calendar: http://www.mozilla.org/projects/calendar/
  7. Update the Flash-Component: http://www.holgermetzger.de/updates.html
  8. Install Beatnik Audio Player and Netscape AVI Player by copying the following files from your Netscape Communicator plugins-folder into your Netscape 7 plugins folder: beatnik.class, npavi.dll, npavi.zip, npbeatnk.dll. You also need patches.hsb in your Windows directory for Beatnik to function properly. If you do not have Netscape Communicator installed you can get those files here.
  9. Add the following prefs to your prefs.js:
    pref("imageblocker.enabled", true);
    pref("profile.confirm_automigration",true);
    pref("mailnews.display.disable_format_flowed_support", true); 
    pref("mailnews.send_plaintext_flowed", false);
    pref("mail.quoted_graphical", false);
    pref("mail.quoteasblock", false);
    pref("mail.server.default.abbreviate",false);
    pref("mail.check_all_imap_folders_for_new", true);
    pref("mailnews.headers.showUserAgent", true);
    pref("javascript.allow.mailnews", false);
    pref("network.cookie.disableCookieForMailNews", true);
    pref("mailnews.message_display.allow.plugins", false);
    pref("mailnews.message_display.disable_remote_image", true);
    pref("mail.allow_at_sign_in_user_name", true);
    pref("mailnews.start_page.enabled", false);
    pref("mail.display_struct", true);
    pref("mailnews.fakeaccount.show", false);
  10. Create a file named userContent.css and save it in your /chrome/ folder in your profile directory. Add the following lines:
    blockquote[type=cite] {
    border-color: black ! important;
    border-width: thin ! important;
    color: #0000bb ! important;
    }
    blockquote[type=cite] blockquote {
    color: #681E80 ! important;
    }
    blockquote[type=cite] blockquote blockquote {
    color: #0070ff ! important;
    }
    blockquote[type=cite] blockquote blockquote blockquote {
    color: #C67900 ! important;
    }
    blockquote[type=cite] blockquote blockquote blockquote blockquote {
    color: #008800 ! important;
    }
    span[_moz_quote=true] {
    color: #004080 !important;
    }
    .moz-txt-sig > a,
    .moz-signature > a {
    color: #408080 !important;
    font-style: italic !important;
    }
    .moz-text-plain pre > a {
         color: #004080 ! important;
     }

     Save the file and restart Netscape.
  11. Done!
