NETSCAPE AND AOL
Now Windows 95 users can use Netscape Navigator, the world's most popular
way to navigate the Internet, with their America Online account! Any
Internet browser enables you to browse the World Wide Web. But only
Netscape Navigator allows you to see more of the Internet, more easily.
The following step-by-step instructions take you through the installation
process in about ten minutes, after downloading the necessary files. It's
very important that you follow these instructions EXACTLY, and we
strongly recommend that you print them out (by selecting FILE, PRINT) or
copy them into your word processor (by highlighting the text and
selecting EDIT, COPY) for easy access.
- STEP 1 - MAKE SURE YOU'RE USING AOL VERSION
2.5
- Ensure that you are using Version 2.5 or greater of the America Online software in
Windows95. To check, select HELP from the toolbar at the top of the
screen, then click on ABOUT AMERICA ONLINE. If the version number is less
than 2.5, you need to upgrade your software by selecting GO TO, KEYWORD,
and typing UPGRADE.
- STEP 2 - MAKE SURE YOU'RE CONNECTING VIA A
MODEM
-
Ensure that you're accessing AOL with a modem, and NOT through a network
TCP/IP connection. If you're connecting to AOL from a network
environment, STOP HERE. These instructions are only for use with a
dial-up, modem connection to AOL.
- STEP 3 - CHECK FOR EXISTING VERSIONS OF
WINSOCK.DLL
- Search for any file on your system called WINSOCK.DLL. To do this,
click
on the Windows95 START button, select (C) DRIVE; at the menu bar of your
C: DRIVE, select VIEW, then OPTIONS, then the VIEW tab and select the
"Show all files" option. Click on APPLY, then CANCEL. Now click on the
Windows95 START button again, select FIND, and click on FILES OR
FOLDERS. In the NAMED dialog-box type WINSOCK.DLL. In the LOOK IN
dialog-box select (C:). Make sure the INCLUDE SUBFOLDERS box is checked
and click on FIND NOW.
If you find a file called WINSOCK.DLL or winsock.dll, you probably have
other online application(s) which require it. Installing another
WINSOCK.DLL may cause these applications not to work. We recommend you
STOP here and consult your software manuals before continuing. If you
choose to continue with the installation, and later discover that an
application works incorrectly or not at all, you will need to deinstall
this version of WINSOCK.DLL and reinstall the other one. This process
can be tricky; therefore if you find other versions of WINSOCK.DLL and
are unsure about your abilities to reconstruct the original configuration
in case of problems, STOP HERE.
- STEP 4 - BACK UP EXISTING VERSIONS OF
WINSOCK.DLL
- If you found previously existing versions of WINSOCK.DLL and have
decided
to proceed anyway, first make a backup copy of the other versions on
your system.
Copy any existing versions of WINSOCK.DLL that you found in step 3 to a
floppy disk. This can be done easily in the Find window by highlighting
each file in turn and using FILE, SEND TO, FLOPPY. If you found more than
one WINSOCK.DLL, you will need to create subfolders on the floppy drive
to differentiate the various versions. You can do this in MY COMPUTER by
clicking on the floppy drive icon and selecting FILE, NEW, FOLDER to
create the subfolders on the floppy drive. Once you've copied the files
to the floppy, remove them from your hard drive. If you receive a message
saying that Windows is using the file and it cannot be removed, you will
have to overwrite the older WINSOCK.DLL with the new version. This may
cause application(s) already on your system to work incorrectly or not at
all. Be sure you have a backup copy of the existing WINSOCK.DLL!
- STEP 5 - DOWNLOAD WINSOCK.DLL
- Switch back to AOL and the Netscape menu. Double click on DOWNLOAD
WINSOCK.DLL, then click on DOWNLOAD NOW. Save the file in your WINDOWS
subfolder by selecting C:\WINDOWS in the DOWNLOAD MANAGER box that
appears.
When you have finished downloading the file, click on CANCEL to return to
the Netscape menu.
- STEP 6 - DOWNLOAD AND INSTALL NETSCAPE
NAVIGATOR
- Double click on DOWNLOAD NETSCAPE NAVIGATOR! and click DOWNLOAD NOW.
Ideally you should download this file into an empty subfolder, or move it
to an empty subfolder after downloading. Make a note of the subfolder
into which you downloaded the file. When you have finished downloading
the file, click on CANCEL to return to the Netscape menu.
After you have downloaded Netscape and moved it to an empty subfolder,
decompress it by double-clicking on it in WINDOWS 95 EXPLORER or MY
COMPUTER. The file will expand to many files. When the decompression
window title changes to "FINISHED", close the window by
clicking on the X button in the upper right hand corner.
Once the file has decompressed, double-click on the file SETUP.EXE and
follow the installation instructions.
- STEP 7 - REBOOT, RESTART WINDOWS AND LOG ON TO
AOL
- Exit AOL and any other open programs. Use the SHUT DOWN menu to restart
your computer. Log onto AOL as you normally do.
- STEP 8 - START NETSCAPE NAVIGATOR
- While you are logged onto AOL, minimize its screen and go back to your
desktop. Start Netscape Navigator by double-clicking on its shortcut. If
you chose the default options during installation, you will find the
shortcut on your START menu under PROGRAMS, NETSCAPE. Success! You're
now using Netscape Navigator with your AOL connection!
- STEP 9 - HAPPY SURFING!
- If you experience any problems in running Netscape Navigator or any
other
online applications, you can undo this installation and return to your
original configuration by removing the new WINSOCK.DLL and replacing it
with the previous versions you backed up on the floppy disk.
